Which hormone stimulates minstration?
Follicle stimulating hormone
Which hormone brings the folicle to the point of being ready for ovulation? Where is this hormone secreted?
Lutenizing hormone. Pituitary.
What phase is the oocyte arrested in before ovulation?
Meiosis I
What phase is the oocyte arrested in when ovulation occurs?
Meiosis II
What does the remains of the rupture follicle turn into? What hormone stimulates this?
corpus luteum

LH
What structure secretes progesterone to help maintain pregnancy if ferttilization occurs?
The corpus Luteum
What does the corpus luteum becomes if fertilization does not occur?
corpus albicans
When is the first polar body released?
at ovulation
Where does fertilization occur?
In the ampulla of the uterine tube
What changes do the sperm undergo in the female?
Activation by:
-capacitation
- acrosome reaction
When does meosis II occur?
at time of fertilization
When does the 1st mitotic division occur?
at 30 hours
When does the morula occur?
3 days
how old is the conceptus and what stage is it in when it enters the uterus?
8 days; blastocyst
what is the 16 cell stage called?
morula
What is a blastocyst?
a conceptus with a blastocoele
What does the inner cell mass of the blastocyst become?

Outer cell mass?
embryo

placenta
What cell invade the uterus and eventually become the placenta?
Trophoblast cells from the epiblast
What proliferates, envades the endometrium and forms the lacunae? What do the lacunae eventually fill with?
The syctiotrophoblasts (fused trophoblasts)

the mother's blood
What grow into the syncytium and eventually become vascular?
villi from cytotrophoblasts

- nutrients and O2 from mother's blood diffuse into these vessels and the waste travels in the opposite direction
When is the embryo made of a bilaminar disc?
At the end of the 2nd week
What is the bilaminar disc made up of?
The epiblast and hypblast
What 2 cavities does the epiblast and hypoblast separate? Which layer touches which cavity?
- amniotic cavity (epiblast)
- yolk sac (hypoblast)
What 2 important feature form on the embryonic disc?
The primitive streak (with primitive streak at one end) and the buccopharyngeal membrane
What turns the bilaminar disc into the trilaminar disc?
When the epiblast cells migrate through the primitive streak
Which layer of the trilaminar disc originate fromt the epiblast?
All because the epiblast forms the mesiderm and replaces the hypoblast
What is the notochord?
A mass of cells, forming a rod-like structure which forms in the midline of the embryo. Epiblast cells migrate cephalad after passing throught the primitive streak.
Where are notochord cells derived from?
The epiblast
What does the notochord organize?
The formation vertibral column
What does the notochord persist as in the adult?
The nucleus pulposus in the vertibral disc
Where does the nervous system originate from?
the ectoderm
Where does the synsory epithelium for the nose, eyes and ears originate from?
the ectoderm
Where does the epidermis, hair and nails come from?
the ectoderm
Where does subcutaneous glands, mammary glands, pituitary gland come from
the ectoderm
Where does the enamel of the teeth come from?
The ectoderm
Where does muscle, cartilage, and bone originate from?
mesoderm
Where does the heart, blood, and lymph vessels, blood and lymph cells originate from?
the mesoderm
Where do the kidneys, gonads and and teir ducts come from?
the mesoderm
where do spleen and suprarenal cortex come from?
the mesoderm
Where does the epithelial lining of the GI tract, respiratory tract come from?
the endoderm
Where does the urinary bladder originate from?
the endoderm
Where does the parenchyma of the thyroid, parathyroids, liver and pancreas originate from?
endoderm
Where does the epithelial lining of the tympanic cavity and auditory tube originate from?
The endoderm
