Q

: the process by which the sperm becomes hypermobile and there is a breakdown of the plasma membrane and exposes the acrosomal membrane/ covering of the sperm head allowing the sperm to bind with the zona pellucida of the ovum.

Q

_______follows capacitation; the acrosomal covering of the head of the sperm contains______.

So as millions of sperms surrounds the ovum, they deposit minute amounts of hyaluronidase in the corona radiata, the outer layer of the ovum, which allows the sperm head to penetrate the ovum

A

Acrosomal Reaction

Q

Stages of Intrauterine Development

A
  1. Ovum
    II. Embryo
    III. Fetus
19
Q

20
Q

• First 8 weeks
• The period of organ differentiation (organogenesis)

A

Embryo

21
Q

: the dysgenesis of fetal organs as evidenced either structurally or functionally

A

Teratogenesis

22
Q

The typical manifestation of____ are restricted growth or death of the fetus, carcinogenesis, and malformation, defined as defects in organ structure or function.

A

teratogenesis

23

27
Q
