Craniate Eggs
Types of eggs:
*
distribution of yolk… found in
placental mammals and
amphioxus
*
distribution of yolk concentrated
at the vegetal pole… found in
lampreys, bony fish, amphibians

*
eggs… found in marine lampreys,
cartilaginous fish, reptiles,
monotremes
Craniate Eggs
Oviparity & Viviparity:
Animals that “lay” their eggs are
considered _________________.
Animals that give birth are
considered _________________.
If the embryo could develop
without maternal tissue then
_____________, while
dependent strategies are

Fertilization:

In which type of “–parity” are eggs
by necessity internally fertilized?
Usually external fertilization
requires …

Early Development
Cleavage and the blastula:
As fertilized egg cells divide this is called
_____________.
What happens to cell size initially?
Hollow sphere is called the ________
and it contains a hollow space… the
_____________.
Excessive yolk impedes cell division…
such that a ______________ develops on
an otherwise undivided yolk.
What taxonomic group(s) would
utilize this mode?
Early Development
Let’s review what we can infer since we know this
is “Chordate” development…
What type of cleavage pattern?
What does the 1st opening become?
How many germ layers do we have?
Early Development
_______________ is the process
in which 3 primitive germ layers
are formed
Amphioxous eggs lack yolk and
provide a clear picture
Involution of blastula
Resultant opening is the

Early Development
Mesoderm forms from the
___________ and then creates
pouches (coelomic or
mesodermal)
Lateral/superficial layer becomes
___________________
Inner/deep layer becomes

What becomes of the ectoderm?
How about the endoderm?
Early Development
Gastrulation:
Frog – because the yolk
cells are slow… involution
is delayed.
Consequently, slightly
different process
accomplishes same ends.
Lateral mesoderm moves
in from sides and ventral
area of blastopore
heading for the head.
Early Development
Gastrulation:
Chick – Special consideration required when we
have a marolecithal egg.
Blastoderm (epiblast and hypoblast)
______________ continues around the yolk to
become part of the yolk sac
______________ has cells migrating inward that
become endoderm
Cells destined to become the mesoderm migrate
in between the other 2 “derms”
Early Development
What regulates differentiation of
these cells into various germs,
derms, tissues and organs?
Organizer area

that surrounds the yolk.

Extraembryonic Membranes
Reptiles and mammals develop inside
2 sacs…
___________surrounds the embryo
___________surrounds the amnion
and the yolk sac
Important feature that allows eggs to
be laid on land (with less dependence
on water)
Amniotic fluid surrounds the embryo
and is contained by the amnion
Where does this water come from?
