(104 cards)
1
Q
gestation

pregnancy - 38 weeks from fertilization to birth
2
Q
prenatal development (what is it, and its stages) (2)
A
time from fertilization to birth
embryonic period
- fert to 8 weeks (embryo)
- all principal adult organs present
fetal development
- week 9 to birth
- placenta now functional
can also be divided into 3 trimesters (1,2,3)
3
Q
neonatal period
A
first 28 days after birht
4
Q
embryonic period - week 1 events (4)
A
fertilization
cleavage of zygote
blastocyst formation
implantation
5
Q
fertilization
A
haploid sperm + secondary oocyte = zygote (2n)
6
Q
when does fert oocur
A
within 12-24 hours post ov
7
Q
how long are oocytes and sperm viable for
A
oocyte - 24 hours
sperm - 48 hours
8
Q
how are sperm attracted to the oocyte
A
via capacitation
9
Q
capacitation
A
series of changes that allow sperm to fertilize the oocyte
flagella beat more rapidly
removal of cholesterol and proteins from plasma membrane near acrosome that prepare sperm for fusion
10
Q
corona radiata
A
layer of granulosa cells around oocyte
11
Q
zona pellucida
A
glycoprotein layer between plasma membrane and corona radiata of oocyte
12
Q
ZP3
A
glycoprotien in zona pellucida that acts as a sperm receptor
13
Q
what happens when a sperm binds to ZP3
A
sperm cells release acrosomal enzymes and digest a path thru zona pellucida
14
Q
fusion of sperm and oocyte cause 2 blocks.
waht do these things do?
A
fast block
- depolarization of oocytes membrane so it cant fuse with another sperm
slow block
- hardening of zona pellucida that inactivates ZP3
blocking prevents polyspermy
15
Q
polyspermy
A
fertilization by more that 1 sperm
16
Q
syngamy
A
fusion of male and female pronuclei
17

24
Q
what day is the morula formed
A
4
25
blastocyst formation
day 5
morula enters uterine cavity
- fluid from endometrial glands enters morula and reorganized blastomeres to form the blastocyst
- fluid nourishes the morula and the zona pellucida is shed
the morula is now called a blastocyst
26
endometrial glands secrete
uterine milk (fluid that forms blastocyst from morula)
27
blastocyst gives rise to two different cell populations (2) what are they and what do tehy develop into?
embryoblast (inner)
- develops into embryo
trophoblast (outer)
- develops into outer chorionic sac
28
implantation happens by day:
6
29
implantation
attachment of blastocyst to endometrium
embryoblast is oriented to face the endometrium
30
once attached (implantation) what happens to the endometrium and blastocyst?
endo
- becomes more vascularized
blastocyst
- secretes enzymes, burrows into endometrium
31
what do trophoblast cells secrete, and what does it do/
hCG, human chorionic gonadotropin
maintains corpus luteum, allowing for sustained secretion of estrogen and progesterone, preventing menstruation
32
decidua (what is it, + 3 layers)
functional layer of endometrium formed after implantation
basal - nourishes embryo, surrounds it in endometrium
capsular - part of endometrium that covers embryo from lumen of uterus (part of basal and parietal)
parietal - remaining part of modified endometrium in noninvolved areas
33
ectopic pregnancy
development of an embryo outside the uterine cavity, usually in tubes
can be due to:
- scarring
- smoking (destruction of cilia)
- peristalsis defect
- abnormal tubal anatomy
can also occur in ovaries, abdominal cavity, or cervix
is not removed place will rupture leading to hemorrhage and maybe death

36
development of trophoblast can only occur in trophoblast cells that are:
in contact iwth the endometrium
37
development of trophoblast (2)
trophoblasts contacting endometrium rapidly divide into two layers
syncytiotrophoblast - outermost layer
- secretes enzymes that allow blastocytes to burrow during implantation
cytotrophoblast - inner layer between syncytiotrophoblasts and embryoblast
both of these layers will become part of the chorion as they grow
38
what will teh two layers of trophoblasts become part of, and what are they
syncytiotrophoblast (inner), and cytotrophoblasts (outer) become part of the chorion

epiblast (inner) - layer of columnar cells
- this will form the epidermis and nervous system (primitive ectoderm)
42

appears within the epiblast
bordered by amnion and epiblast
43

why does angiogenesis happen
because the umbilical vesicle cant provide enough nutrients, so blood vessels are needed

steps of angiogenesis (
mesoderm cells in teh umbilical vesicle become hamngioblasts, then angioblasts
these cells form blood islands that fuse
spaces in the blood islands will form teh lumen of blood vessels
blood cells and plasma then develop is structures outside the embryo

angiogenesis
- mesoderm cells in umbilical vesicle form blood islands
