Across
- 2. the location where peripheral neurons originate during development
- 3. otherwise known as motor neurons
- 4. the ability to become any cell in the body, including extra-embryonic tissues
- 7. the stage of embryonic development where gene transcription begins
- 11. when mesoderm cells are folded into the interior of the blastula
- 12. when two layers of cells move towards each other
- 13. neurons in flies that were studied to determine molecular mechanisms of axon growth cone movement
- 16. neurons otherwise known as sensory neurons
- 17. a diffusable factor that repels an axonal growth cone to guide movement
- 18. tumors consisting of most tissue types that are formed by implanting an embryo into an adult mouse
- 19. packets of cells that are the precursors to muscle cells
- 21. the fusion of two embryos; can be proof of totipotency
- 22. a survival factor required for neurons to establish connections at their targets; neurons compete for it and those that do not obtain enough lose connections
Down
- 1. otherwise known as interneurons
- 5. the process by which embryonic tissue movements form the spinal cord
- 6. the localized factor that determines the vegetal pole in the embryo
- 8. a factor produced by lung buds that inhibits the production of FGF10 in nearby mesenchymal cells, leading to branching; involved with genesis of neurons
- 9. neuron precursors that reside on the inner surface of the neural tube
- 10. location of embryonic stem cells; each cell is pluripotent
- 14. a tissue movement where a layer of cells elongates
- 15. a tyrosine kinase receptor for NGF
- 20. a diffusable factor that attracts an axonal growth cone to guide movement
- 23. a factor produced by lung mesenchymal cells that guides the growth of lung buds
