Embryology and Anatomy I

Objectives

In this curricular unit is intended that the student:

- study the basic embryology, giving special attention to knowledge with clinical relevance.

- acquire adequate knowledge of the conformation, embryonic development and birth defects of the locomotor apparatus of all domestic species. It is highlighted the most relevant anatomical aspects, particularly their application to other signatures.

- develop skills in the area of osteology, myology and arthrology of the neck, trunk, hindlimb and forelimb.

Program

The significance of Embryology and Veterinary Anatomy. Gametogenesis.Fertilization. Cleavage, morulation and blastulation. Gastrulation. Formation of germ layers. Implantation. Fetal membranes.Embryonic circulation. Placentation. Fetal period. Changes during the perinatal period. Development of the axial region and limbs. General concepts in Osteology, Arthrology and Myology. Joints of the vertebral column and thorax. Muscles associated to the axial region. Vascularization and enervation of the axial region. Shoulder, elbow and manus joints. Muscles of the thoracic limb, thoracic girdle musculature, muscles acting primarily on the shoulder joint, pectoral muscles, muscles of the elbow joint and muscles acting on the hand Vascularization and enervation of the thoracic limb Hip, stifle and foot joints Muscles acting primarily on the hip joint, acting on stifle joint and motor muscles of the foot. Vascularization and enervation of the pelvic limb and lumbosacral plexus.

Teaching Methodologies

The lectures will be like masterful, with exposure of the subjects by the teacher, encouraging the participation and involvement of students.
In practical classes, it is intended that the student has a key role in stimulating the learning process. Thus students will be encouraged to collect their own teaching materials and organize their learning process.
Are only allowed on assessment students that:
-are enrolled at CU in the academic year.
-have a registration in SIDE prior to testing.
ASSESSMENT MODES
1- CONTINUOUS EVALUATION
Can only aprove the signature the students that meet the standards stipulated in the Pedagogical Regulament of UTAD regarding attendance at lectures.
Theoretical assessment: Two periodic evaluations - the student approves with the minimum values of 9.0 in each;
Practical assessment: will take place during the practical classes.
2- SUPPLEMENTARY EVALUATION
3- EXAM
