Embryo
Sperm hit membrane and trigger acrosome to breakdown and release hyaluronidase (breaks down junctions between radiate cells) and acrosin (break down the zona pellucida)
Sperm Fusion (thought to be due to fertillin on sperm cell binds to integrins on the egg) to the Egg triggers a Calcium wave (occurs within a minute upto 15-20).
Cortical Reaction: Ca2+ activate cortical granules to release contents via exocytosis that inactivate Zona Pellucida (Z3 protein and partially cleave Z2) so no more sperm can bind. Prevents polyspermy
Secondary oocyte (egg) completes second meiotic division leads to formation of mature oocyte (ovum) forming 1 polar body and 1 female pronucleus
Sperm injected Nucleus, Tail, and other organelles into cytoplasm

Blood islands start to develop in the definitive/secondary yolk sac in the extraembryonic mesoderm where there is low oxygen. Extracellular matrix is around the endoderm of the secondary yolk sac. Vasculogenesis is the formation of the arteries and veins. Angiogenesis is the branching of the existing ones.
Mesenchyme cells begin to cluster (angiogenetic cell cluster) and differentiate into hemangioblasts. This is due to oxygen sensitive genes in the mesenchyme cell (HIF1-alpha). Low oxygen leads to increased HIF1-alpha expression which leads to VEGF mRNA production. It has autocrine and paracrine action.
Further differentiation of the hemangioblasts produce both primitive blood cells from the cells inside the cluster (RBC are nucleated at this stage) and endothelial cells lining capillaries from cells on the periphery of the cluster.

Mesenchymal cells of the extraembryonic mesoderm express Flt1 (VEGF-R1) and Flk1 (VEGF-R2) that bind VEGF. When activated by VEGF they differentiate into the clusters.
- Flt1 will be released as sFlt1 that gets released into the blood
- PLGF (Placental Growth Factor) is a type of VEGF

Note: I know he said that these two pictures go together but he specifically said that the hole is open at week 10 and that the lungs are at this stage at week 8 # #

Update Log
(any edits will be posted here)
9/22/17 - Moved over Ectoderm Primer info - accidently put it on the wrong image last week. SORRY!
Made clear
"Epiblast cells that are to become mesodermal cells enter the space as mesenchymal cells, which is their cell TYPE, as opposed to be a cubodial or columnar type cell."
9/20/17 - Fixed Laryngeal/pharynx slide at day 40 (incomplete sentence)
