Fate of adrenal cortex:
1- Fetal cortex: regress rapidly leaving outer
part to form zona reticularis.
2- Permenant cortex: differentiate into zona
glomerulosa and zona fasiculata.
N.B. Zona glomerulosa and fasiculata are
present since birth while reticularis
becomes recognisable at 3rd
year.

EMBRYONIC DISC
• It is composed of three layers:
–Ectoderm which give rise to epidermis of
skin, nervous system.
–Mesoderm which gives rise to skeletal,
muscular and vascular systems.
–Endoderm which gives rise to mucosal
lining of digestive, respiratory, heart and
primitive germ cells.
Dr.Sherif
INTRA-EMBRYONIC MESODERM
• It is divided into 3 columns on each side
of notochord.
1- Paraxial mesoderm which forms somites.
2- Intermediate mesoderm forms uro-genital
system.
3- Lateral plate mesoderm which forms
serous membranes of the body and muscles
of body wall and limbs.
