Morula

Question 1. Meckel’s cartilage.
Answer:

Meckel’s cartilage:

• It is the cartilage of the first arch.
• At 6th week of development, this cartilage extends as a solid hyaline cartilaginous rod, surrounded by a fibro cellular capsule, from the developing ear region to the midline of the fused mandibular processes.
• The two cartilages of each side do not meet at the midline but are separated by a thin band of mesenchyme.
• It has a close relationship with the development of the trigeminal nerve beginning at two-thirds of the way along the entire length.
• On the lateral aspect of Meckel’s cartilage, during the sixth week of IU life, a condensation of mesenchyme occurs forming the division of the inferior alveolar nerve.
• At 7 weeks intramembranous ossification begins in this condensation and then spreads anteriorly up to the middle and posteriorly up to the lingula.

Question 2. Morula.
Answer:

Morula

• After fertilization of the ovum, a series of cell divisions gives rise to an egg cell mass known as the morula.
• It looks like mulberry.
• Fluid seeps into the morula, and the cells realign themselves to form blastocysts,
• Two cell populations are distinguished within the blastocyst.
