Q

Epididymis

A

Prior to arriving to the epididymis soermnsre on motile and infertile

Q

Oogenesis

A

All available gametes are usually produced by the fifth month of gestation

2 million primary oocytes survive

Meiotic division begins just before birth but it’s Not completed

Maintained in a state of meiotic arrest until puberty

16
Q

The primary follicle encompasses the ___

A

Primary oocytes
Single layer of granulosa
Thecal cells

Separated by the basement membrane

17
Q

Three phases of ovarian cycle

A

Follicular phase

Ovulation phase

Luteal phase - prepreation of the corpus luteum

18
Q

Ovulation is controlled by

19
Q

Fertilization means the corpus luteum

No fertilization means the corpus luteum becomes

A

Continues to geow

Becomes the corpus albincans

20
Q

Acrosomal reaction

A

Enzymes allow the sperm to drill through the corona radiata and the zona pellucida

21
Q

Fertillin on the sperm membrane binds to ___ on the oocytes surface

22
Q

Acrosomal reaction induces a change in the oocytes membrane which blocks…

23
Q

On entry into the cell the sperm release ___ which induces a release of stored ___ and this is believed to initiate the final meiotic division in the oocyte

24
Q

Twins

A

Occur in about 1:80-90 pregnancies

Dizygotic or ferternal twins are the result of fertilization of two oocytes

Monozygotic or maternal twins are the result of the early embryo dividing in two

25
After about the third day of fertilization approximately 32 cells are called the
Morula
26
The inner cell mass develop into the
Embryo
27
___ supports the cells dividing at the pole during intrauterine life
Blastocyst
28
Formation of the placenta
12 days the enbryo is completely embedded and the trophoblast is 2 cell layers thick = chorion Chorionic villi project into the endometrial spaces filled with maternal blood Villi contain embryonic capillaries Interlocking maternal and fetal tissue = placenta
29
Placental hormones
Human chorionic gonadotropin - produced by the blastocyst to preserve the corpus luteum - progesterone will inhibit LH release Human placental lactogen - involved with mammary glands development also involved with regulating maternal metabolism
