  • am. - amniotic cavity
  • b.c. - blood clot, at the site of initial implantation
  • b.s. - body-stalk, or connective stalk later forming the placental cord region with placental blood vessels
  • ect. - embryonic ectoderm that will contribute to embryonic and placental membrane development
  • ent. - entoderm (endoderm), this was the historic term for what we today call endoderm that will contribute to embryo development
  • mes. - mesoderm, consisting of both embryonic mesoderm (in the trilaminar embryonic disc) and extraembryonic mesoderm (outside the trilaminar embryonic disc)
  • m.v. - maternal vessels, spiral arteries that have been opened at their ends
  • tr. - trophoblast, relative to the embryonic disc the outer syncitiotrophoblast and inner cytotrophoblast layers that will contribute to placental development
  • u.e. - uterine epithelium, the epithelial layer that lines the unerus
  • u.g. - uterine glands, the glands that secrete nutrients to support the initial growth both before and after implantation
  • y.s. - yolk-sac, the endoderm lined and extraembryonic mesoderm covered cavity that will contribute to the gastrointestinal tract, blood and blood vessels
