Q

Differentiation

A

Less specialized cell becomes a more specialized cell (Morphology, structure, function, metabolism, response to signals) Usually considered terminal and irreversible.

Q

Adrenal Glands

A

-Hormones produced in response to stress
- Regulate Blood Pressure, salt water balance, and glucose metabolism

20
Q

Adipose

A

(fat tissue that is also an endocrine ‘organ’)
Produces
-Leptin: cardiovascular disease
-Adiponectin: cardiovasc protective

21
Q

Posterior Lobe

A

Secretes hormones produced by the hypothalamus. Originates from neural tissue

22
Q

Anterior Lobe

A

Produces its own hormones and acts on other endocrine glands. Originates from the roof of the mouth (stomadeal ectoderm)

23
Q

Kinnefelter’s Syndrome

A

XXY-
no inactivation of x chromsome
sterile
testicular hypoplasia

24
Q

Turners Syndrome

A

XO- Sterile due to lack of ovarian development

25
Male Gonad Produces
Mullerian Inhibiting Hormone, Testosterone, and DHT
26
DHT
contributes to the development of sexual structures and characteristics in people assigned male at birth.
26
MIH
Mullerian Inhibitor
27
Testosterone
28
Cryptorchidism
29
4 Determinants of Sex
1) Chromosomal (Genetic Sex) XX or XY 2) Gonadal Sex Testes or Ovaries 3) Phenotypic Sex Fat Deposition, Voice, Hair Patterns 4) Behavioral Sex Sex of Brain/ Psychology
30
Trans-DIfferentiation
one mature somatic cell transforms into another mature somatic cell without undergoing an intermediate state
31
Embryo
earliest stage of development -stage between first divsion of zygote until major formation of orans/systems in vertebrates
32
Fetus
unborn vertebrate offspring until birth. 8 weeks after fert until birth
33
Conceptus
entire product of conception from fertilization and its membranes
34
Prenatal Development
1) germinal dvpmt fert to 2 weeks 2) Embryonic dvpmt major organ system forming, organogenesis 3) Fetal dvpmt organogenesis until birth (end of 8 weeks to 40 weeks) 4) Parturition delivering conceptus (39-40 weeks)
35
Perinatal Development
Period immediately before and after birth
36
Pituitary Hormones
ACTH FSH LH TSH
37
Anterior Pituitary Target Tissues + Hormones
Bones, Muscles, and organs (growth hormone) breasts (prolactin) Ovaries, Testes (LH and FSH) Adrenal Cortex (ACTH) Thyroid Gland (TSH)
38
Posterior Pituitary Target Tissues and Hormones
Kidneys (ADH) Breasts and Uterus (Oxytocin)
39
Sella Turcica
bony surface on sphenoid bone, wraps around anterior and posterior pituitary
40
GSD (Genotypic Sex determination)
Y chromosome induces testis differentiation Birds+Some Reptiles W Chrom. induces ovary differentiation male: ZZ Female: ZW
41
TSD (Temp. Dependent Sex determination)
sex determined by temperature, steroids Certain temps can reverse genotypic sex of an embryo
42
Bipotential Gonad
Both repro systems use the same duct system Both develop from several common elements located on genital ridge
43
Embryo and the Renal system (mesanephros . . .etc.)
1) Mesonephros (initial kidney) 2) paramesonephric ducts develop and metanephros start developing kidneys 3)
44
Meso and parameso (male and female)
Male mesonephric tubules- efferent ducts mesonephric ducts- epididymus and ductus deferens ---paramesno ducts will disappear Female Paramesno ducts (mullerian ducts)- oviducts, cervix, uterus, vagina
