Question
Question: Diagram of a Human blastocyst is given below. Identify A & B , the blastocyst has a diameter of approximately 0.1–0.2 mm and contains 200–300 cells. The blastocyst is inserted approximately seven days after fertilization and embedded in the endometrium of the uterine lining. There, it will undergo additional processes of growth, like gastrulation.
The human blastocyst is depicted by the illustration. The name A refers to the trophoblasts that shape the blastocyst’s outer layer of cells. The B name corresponds to the mass of the inner cell. In the development of the embryonic framework, the inner cell mass is included. The placenta shapes the trophoblast.
Note: Blastocyst's inner cell mass are the origins of embryonic stem cells, which are commonly used in stem cell treatments, including reconstruction, substitution and regeneration of cells. The internal cell mass, also recognized as the embryoblast, creates the primitive endoderm and the proper embryo.
