Q

phases of spermiogenic sperm production

A

Q

what can absence of fructose mean

A

vas deferens is missing/not functional

40
Q

what is the primary female reproductive organ

A

ovary

41
Q

when deos oogenesis number peak

A

20 weeks as a fetus= gonad has maximal oogonial content

42
Q

when does body temp go up by 1 C

A

luteal phase

43
Q

why does body temp go up by 1 C in luteal phase

A

higher level progesterone

44
Q

when do ovaries begin producing estrogen

A

after puberty begins

45
Q

what can increase in estrogen cause

A

breast development, increased skin vascularization, increase adipose tissue

46
Q

what are estrogen levels controlled by

A

negative feedback

47
Q

when does puberty in females begin

A

when GnRH levels increase

48
Q

what hormones stimulate the ovarian cycle

A

LH and FSH

49
Q

what happens during secretory phase of menstrual cycle

A

during luteal phase, endometrium develops blood vessels and glands

50
Q

what phase of menstrual cycle has highest level progesterone

A

luteal

51
Q

what stage menstrual cycle has highest body temp, lowest LH and FSH

A

luteal

52
Q

when does estrogen peak

A

highest during follicular phase and is mid-level during luteal

53
Q

when does progesterone peak

A

highest in luteal b/c made by corpus luteum= forms after ovulation

54
Q

when is LH highest

A

luteal phase, peaks during ovulation

55
Q

when are FSH levels highest

A

in follicular phase and peak at ovulation

56
Q

after ovulation, egg is only fertilizable for how long

A

12-24 hours

57
Q

how long can sperm live for

A

72 hours

58
Q

what events occur during ovulation

A

estrogen peak before ovulation, LH and FSH peak during ovulation, prostaglandins released that facilitate oocyte release from Graafian follicle’ uterine cycle shifts to secretory phase

59
Q

when do watery secretions occur from cervix

A

during fertile period when estrogen levels peak before ovulation

60
Q

when is thick mucus secreted from cervix

A

infertile period, after ovulation and corpus luteum produces progesterone

61
Q

why does FSH increase at end of luteal phase

A

FSH is repressed by high levels of progesterone and estradiol so they go down and negative inhibition of FSH is lifted

62
Q

2 cell theory

A
  • theca produce androgens when LH binds

- FSH binds to granulosa cells and convert into estrogens

63
Q

what do intermediate levels of estrogen exert negative feedback on

A

hypothalamus, so LH and FSH aren’t released

64
Q

when is there sudden positive feedback during follicular phase

A

levels of estradiol raise before ovulation; causes surge in LH and FSH

65
Q

what declines when corpus luteum is disintegrated

A

thickness of endometrium

66
Q

when does endometrium get thicker

A

during follicular phase when estrogens are high

67
Q

what happens after blastocyst moves to uterus

A

starts dividing down the fallopian tube

68
Q

what are the stages of implantation

A

apposition, adhesion, invasion

69
Q

what happens during apposition stage of implantation

A

blastocyst finds spot on endometrium to eventually stick

70
Q

what happens during adhesion stage of implantation

A

blastocyst sticks onto endometrium

71
Q

what happens during invasion stage of implantation

A

cells from blasocyst will start moving into cell layer of endometrium

72
Q

what hormone makes up the placenta

A

hCG, which is produced around 7 days after ovulation and goes up rapidly

73
Q

what are cytorophoblasts

A

proliferative cells that produce S-trophoblasts

74
Q

what are syncytiotrophoblasts

A

functional cells that make up placenta

75
Q

when are syncytiotrophoblasts present

A

6 days after implantation and functional placenta at day 7

76
Q

what maintains corpus luteum

A

LH

77
Q

what is the #1 source of progesterone

A

LH

78
Q

when does placenta start making hCG

A

after placenta can make enough progesterone and is used to maintain corpus luteum for 8-10 weeks

79
Q

what do syncytiotrophoblasts do

A

synethsize hormones and steroids needed for pregnancy

80
Q

what is needed to prevent the corpus luteum from degenerating

A

hCG

81
Q

what are the ways of placental transport of nutrients to fetus

A

simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion

82
Q

what does simple diffusion do

A

moves gases, water, electrolytes across placenta

83
Q

what does facilitated diffusion do

A

move glucose, lactic acid using some energy

84
Q

what does active transport do

A

move amino acids, vitamins, minerals across placenta, uses some energy

85
