I. Embryonic development A. Cleavage 1. zygote to morula to blastula 2. blastocyst 3. cleavage position and fate 4. the beginning of differentiation 5. accomplishments of cleavage B. Gastrulation 1. the main events 2. 3 germ layers a. endoderm b. mesoderm c. ectoderm 3. two great groups of animals C. Neurulation
4
Day 1: fertilization 10 hours
5
1. Cleavage Two accomplishments of cleavage morula blastula
6
1. Cleavage
7
2. Gastrulation blastopore ectoderm endoderm mesoderm Germ layers
8
3. Fate of the germ layers Blastopore?
10
Two great groups of animals Protostomes: blastopore becomes a mouth Deuterostomes: blastopore becomes an anus
11
Deuterostomes
12
Neurulation Neural tube develops from the endoderm
13
II. HOX genes Evolutionarily conserved gene sequences
14
Genetic clock theory 1. Protein in non dividing cells 2. Telomeres and embryonic cells 3. Diseases of aging: Progeria and Alzheimer’s 5. Genes for aging in fruit flies and mice Wear and tear theory 1. Errors in DNA replication 2. Accumulation of metabolic garbage 3. Environmental insults Reproductive obsolescence 4. Organs programmed III. Theories of aging 6. Ink4 protein
