Meanings of umbilical vesicle in English

This is the yelk-sac, or " umbilical vesicle," the origin of which we have considered previously.

The yelk-sac is reduced to a small pear-shaped umbilical vesicle; its thin pedicle, the long vitelline duct, is enclosed in the umbilical cord.

These vessels naturally atrophy with the degeneration of the umbilical vesicle, and the vitelline circulation is replaced by a second, that of the allantois.

H The vertebrae (w) have grown round the medullary tube (mr) and chorda; the body-cavity is closed, and the umbilical vesicle has disappeared.

The very wide opening, through which the gastric cavity at first communicates with the umbilical vesicle, becomes narrower and narrower, and at last disappears altogether.

D The skin-fibre-layer (hf) and gut-fibre-layer (df) divide at the periphery; the gut (d) begins to separate from the yelk-sac or umbilical vesicle (nb).

AC amniotic cavity, UV yelk-sac or umbilical vesicle, ALC allantois, al pericoelom or serocoelom (inter-amniotic cavity), sz serolemma (or serous membrane), pc prochorion (with villi).)

Later still, the remainder of the food-yelk only forms a small round sac, the yelk-sac or umbilical vesicle (Figure 1.105 nb).
