Lecture - Limb Development This lecture is an introduction to
the events in limb development. Cells of the ectoderm, cells
derived from the dermatome and the hypaxial portion of the
myotome mix with somatic component of the lateral plate mesoderm
to give rise to the fore and hind limbs. The appendicular
skeleton consists of: Shoulder girdle, Upper limb (arm, hand),
Pelvic girdle, Lower limb (leg, foot). - Understanding of limb
positioning - Understanding of differences in developmental
timing of upper and lower limbs - Understanding of limb
patterning - regions and factors determining the limb axes -
Understanding of limb rotation - Understanding of limb muscle,
blood vessel, bone and nerve formation - Brief understanding of
limb molecular factors and cell death - Brief understanding of
limb abnormalities |Lectopia Lecture Audio| The Developing
