GI Embryology: B) Biliary Atresia

This document contains 10 multiple choice questions about gastrointestinal embryology. It covers topics like meconium passage in newborns, blood supply complications, midgut development issues, hindgut damage during surgery, liver formation, stomach rotation, vagus nerve development, projectile vomiting in infants, ligament derivatives, and histological development of the GI tract. The questions require knowledge of normal GI development and how various abnormalities or injuries can impact specific structures during fetal development and after birth.
