Examples of optical vesicle in the following topics:
-
- First, an outpocketing of the neural tube occurs, creating optic vesicles.
- Development of the optic vesicles starts in the three-week embryo from a progressively deepening groove in the neural plate called the optic sulcus.
- The optic vesicles come into contact with the epithelium and induce the epidermis.
- Further induction by the chordamesoderm forms a protrusion: the optic vesicle.
- After the closure of the tube they are known as the optic vesicles.
-
- At the end of the fourth week the yolk sac presents the appearance of a small pear-shaped vesicle (the umbilical vesicle) opening into the digestive tube by a long narrow tube, the vitelline duct.
- The optical vesicle (which will eventually become the optic nerve, retina, and iris) forms at the basal plate of the prosencephalon.
- A white circle represents the area of the optical vesicle.
-
- The optical vesicle (which will eventually become the optic nerve, retina and iris) forms at the basal plate of the prosencephalon.
-
- The prosencephalon further goes on to develop into the telencephalon (the forebrain or cerebrum) and the diencephalon (the optic vesicles and hypothalamus).
-
- The optic nerve is also known as cranial nerve II.
- The optic nerve is the second of twelve paired cranial nerves.
- As a consequence, optic nerve damage produces irreversible blindness.
- The optic nerve leaves the orbit, which is also known as an eye socket, via the optic canal, running posteromedially toward the optic chiasm, where there is a partial decussation (crossing) of fibers from the nasal visual fields of both eyes.

-
- Transcytosis, or vesicle transport, is one of three mechanisms that facilitate capillary exchange, along with diffusion and bulk flow.
- Substances are transported through the endothelial cells themselves within vesicles.
- The substance to be transported is endocytosed by the endothelial cell into a lipid vesicle which moves through the cell and is then exocytosed to the other side.
- Vesicles are capable of merging, allowing for their contents to mix, and can be transported directly to specific organs or tissues.
-
- To the rear of the orbit, the optic foramen opens into the optical
canal through which
the optic nerve and ophthalmic artery pass.
- Finally, the
sphenoid bone forms the posterior wall of the orbit and also contributes to the formation
of the optic canal.
-
- The seminal vesicles secrete a significant proportion of the fluid that ultimately becomes semen.
- Seminal vesicle fluid is alkaline, resulting in human semen with a mildly alkaline pH.
- The vesicle produces a substance that causes the semen to become sticky after ejaculation, thought to help keep the semen near the cervix.
- Seminal vesicle fluid is expelled under sympathetic contraction of the muscularis muscle coat.
- Prostate with seminal vesicles and seminal ducts, viewed from the front and above, including the urethra, seminal vesicle, vas deferens, ampulla, ejaculatory duct, and isthmus.
-
- At the end of the fourth week, the yolk sac has the appearance of a small, pear-shaped vesicle (umbilical vesicle) opening into the digestive tube by a long, narrow tube, the vitelline duct.
- The vesicle can be seen in the afterbirth as a small, somewhat oval-shaped body whose diameter varies from 1 mm to 5 mm.
- In the meantime Heuser's membrane, located on the opposite pole of the developing vesicle, starts its upward proliferation and meets the hypoblast.
-
- Semen is produced and originates from the seminal vesicles, located in the pelvis.
- During the process of ejaculation, sperm pass through the ejaculatory ducts and mix with fluids from the seminal vesicle, the prostate, and the bulbourethral glands to form semen.
- The seminal vesicles produce a yellowish viscous fluid rich in fructose, amino acids, and other substances that make up about 70% of human semen.
