A

after puberty

20

22
Q

When does available gametes peak in females?

23
Q

The gamete reserve in females is

24
Q

The gamete reserve in males is

25
Number of viable gametes after meiosis in females
1
26
number of viable gametes after meiosis in males

27
uterus
Inverted pear shape, site that develops the fetus
28
cervix
physical barrier between the uterus and the outside enviornment
29
fimbriae
capture oocyte and bring into the fallopian tube
30
syncytiotrophoblast
Produce human chorionic gonadotropin
31
human chorionic gonadotropin
predict impantation and embryo growth. make cancer more invasive, high amounts make double implantation
32
progesterone
Made by corpus luteam in first trimester later produced by placenta
33
when does menopause occur
begins when oocytes start to run out
34
When does andropause occur
When there is a decrease in production of testosterone
