MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. Which Of The Following Is The Process By Which The Cells Of The Fertilized Egg
Divide And Form A Ball Of Cells During Embryonic Development?
A. Cleavage
B. Differentiation
C. Organogenesis
D. Implantation
ANS: A. Cleavage
Rationale: Cleavage Is The Series Of Rapid Mitotic Divisions That Occur After
Fertilization, Leading To The Formation Of A Ball Of Cells Known As The Morula.
B. Differentiation: Refers To The Process By Which Cells Become Specialized To
Perform Specific Functions.
C. Organogenesis: Involves The Formation Of Organs From The Three Germ Layers.
D. Implantation: Refers To The Embedding Of The Blastocyst Into The Uterine Lining,
Not Cell Division.
DIF: Easy
TOP: Embryonic Development
MSC: Multiple Choice
2. During The First Week Of Embryonic Development, The Fertilized Egg Becomes A
Structure Called A:
A. Zygote
B. Blastocyst
C. Morula
D. Embryo
,ANS: B. Blastocyst
Rationale: After Fertilization And Cleavage, The Ball Of Cells (Morula) Forms Into A
Blastocyst, Which Implants Into The Uterine Wall.
A. Zygote: The Single Cell Formed Immediately After Fertilization.
C. Morula: A Solid Ball Of Cells Formed Before The Blastocyst Stage.
D. Embryo: The Stage Following Blastocyst Implantation When Organ Systems Begin
Forming.
DIF: Easy
TOP: Embryonic Development
MSC: Multiple Choice
3. The Oral Cavity Begins To Develop During Which Of The Following Stages Of
Embryonic Development?
A. Zygote
B. Fetal
C. Pre-Implantation
D. Embryonic
ANS: D. Embryonic
Rationale: The Development Of The Oral Cavity Starts During The Embryonic Stage,
Around The Third Week Of Pregnancy, As The Facial Structures Begin To Form.
A. Zygote: Only A Single Fertilized Cell Exists At This Stage.
B. Fetal: Involves Growth And Maturation, Not Initial Oral Development.
C. Pre-Implantation: Refers To Early Divisions Before The Embryo Attaches To The
DIF: Moderate
TOP: Oral Cavity Development
MSC: Multiple Choice
4. The Process By Which The Neural Tube Forms And Begins To Develop Into The
Brain And Spinal Cord Is Known As:
, A. Gastrulation
B. Neurulation
C. Cleavage
D. Organogenesis
ANS: B. Neurulation
Rationale: Neurulation Is The Process Where The Neural Tube Forms, Which Later
Gives Rise To The Central Nervous System (Brain And Spinal Cord).
A. Gastrulation: Refers To The Formation Of The Three Germ Layers (Ectoderm,
Mesoderm, Endoderm).
C. Cleavage: Involves Cell Division To Form A Morula, Not Nervous System
Development.
D. Organogenesis: Occurs After Neurulation When Organs Begin Forming From Germ
Layers.
DIF: Moderate
TOP: Neural Development
MSC: Multiple Choice
5. Which Of The Following Is The Primary Function Of The Mesoderm Layer In
Embryonic Development?
A. Formation Of The Nervous System
B. Development Of The Skin And Hair
C. Formation Of Muscles, Bones, And Circulatory Systems
D. Formation Of The Digestive System
ANS: C. Formation Of Muscles, Bones, And Circulatory Systems
Rationale: The Mesoderm Layer Gives Rise To Structures Such As Muscles, Bones,
And The Circulatory System During Embryonic Development.
A. Formation Of The Nervous System: This Is The Role Of The Ectoderm.
B. Development Of The Skin And Hair: Also Derived From The Ectoderm.
