  2. Chorioallantoic membrane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chorioallantoic_membrane

    The CAM functions as the site of gaseous exchange for oxygen and carbon dioxide between the growing embryo and the environment. Blood capillaries and sinuses are found in the intermediate mesodermal layer allows close contact (within 0.2 μm) with air found in pores of the shell membrane of the egg. [4]

  3. Allantois - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allantois

    The human allantois is a caudal out-pouching of the yolk sac, which becomes surrounded by the mesodermal connecting stalk known as the body-stalk. The vasculature of the body-stalk develops into umbilical arteries that carry deoxygenated blood to the placenta. [5] It is externally continuous with the proctodeum and internally continuous with ...

    The human allantois is a caudal out-pouching of the yolk sac, which becomes surrounded by the mesodermal connecting stalk or body-stalk. The vasculature of the body-stalk develops into umbilical arteries that carry deoxygenated blood to the placenta. [12] It is externally continuous with the proctodeum and internally continuous with the cloaca.

  5. Amniotic sac - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amniotic_sac

    Amniotic cavity in human embryo 1.3 mm. long The amniotic cavity is the closed sac between the embryo and the amnion, containing the amniotic fluid. The amniotic cavity is formed by the fusion of the parts of the amniotic fold, which first makes its appearance at the cephalic extremity and subsequently at the caudal end and sides of the embryo .

  6. Chorion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chorion

    In reptiles, birds, and monotremes, the chorion is one of the four extraembryonic membranes that make up the amniotic egg that provide for the nutrients and protection needed for the embryo's survival. It is located inside the albumen, which is the white of the egg. It encloses the embryo and the rest of the embryonic system.

    the yolk sac which surrounds the yolk; the amnion which surrounds and cushions the embryo; the allantois which among avians stores embryonic waste and assists with the exchange of carbon dioxide with oxygen as well as the resorption of calcium from the shell, and

  8. A photo shows the brown spiders, including a female with a robust egg sac. The new species carries fewer but larger eggs than other, similar species, researchers said.

  9. Amnion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amnion

    The amnion (pl.: amnions or amnia) is a membrane that closely covers human and various other embryos when they first form. It fills with amniotic fluid, which causes the amnion to expand and become the amniotic sac that provides a protective environment for the developing embryo.
