Making Of A Baby

Front 1

SSRI-Selective Seretonin Reuptake Inhibitors

Back 1

Seretonin-feel good neurotransmitters
Dopamine-feel good neurotransmitters
SSRI-prevents seretonin from going back to interstitial fluid, this might be a cause of not having an orgasm

Front 2

Why is the egg 2,000 times larger than the sperm?

Back 2

so it has the mechanisms for the egg

Front 3

When do sperm become motile?

Back 3

in the ejaculatory duct but they are not yet fully mature

Front 4

Capacitation

Back 4

Conditions Vagina makes so that the sperm is fully functional

Front 5

How many sperm in the vagina?

Back 5

500million go into vagina
10,000 make into uterus
100 make it to the egg
1 sperm makes it into the egg

Front 6

Oocyte activation

Back 6

sperm delivers its chromosomes to the egg, no more sperm can get to the egg because of chemical reactions

Front 7

Poly spermy

Back 7

more than 1 sperm getting to the egg

Front 8

when are males usually sterile?

Back 8

when their sperm count is less than 20million

Front 9

Gestation

Back 9

lasts 40weeks
and goes through 3 trimesters

Front 10

1st trimester

Back 10

embronic and fetal development, major components begin to develop
heart is one of the first to develop

Front 11

2nd trimester

Back 11

Organ systems become almost complete and fetus begins to look normal

Front 12

3rd trimester

Back 12

very rapid growth, organ systems are all complete and then the woman goes into labor

Front 13

Placenta

Back 13

major capillary bed, exchange of nutrients between mother and fetus

Front 14

Umbilical Cord

Back 14

2 Arteries that take blood away from heart and one vein

Front 15

Respiration

Back 15

done through the placenta

Front 16

Labor

Back 16

Oxycotin hormone promotes labor
3 stages:
dilation
expulsion
placental

Front 17

Dilation

Back 17

cervix dilates, fetus begins to slide down contractions increase in frequency and strength and amnion fluid ruptures

Front 18

Expulsion

Back 18

Cervix completely dilates, fetus emerges from vagina

Front 19

Placental

Back 19

Uterine contractions continue, tears placents away from wall of uterus so the placenta is expelled. 500mL of blood lost and it is easily tolerated because the woman increases her blood volume while she is pregnant

Front 20

Episitomy

Back 20

A controlled tear of the vagina so the baby can come out easier

Front 21

Protapsed

Back 21

uterus comes out of vagina when baby is born

Front 22

Twins

Back 22

Fraternal
Identical

Front 23

Fraternal

Back 23

70% same genetic relationship as brother and sister- 2 eggs and 2 sperm- BB, BG, GG

Front 24

Identical

Back 24

30%-1 egg and 1 sperm- at fertilization zygote splits and separate masses of cells inside the same sack, GG, BB-exact same genetics

Front 25

Aging-Women

Back 25

45-50years women go through menopause, cessation of menses, no more vilable follicles to respond to FSH, dont get progestrone so you dont get the cycles of LH and FSH. Hormonal balance change, effects include osterprosis, nueral effects-hot flashes, anxiety, depression, atherosclerosis (hardening of arteries)

Front 26

Aging-Male

Back 26

Male anti-climacteric- 50-60 years
at 23-30years the testostrone decreases and cant maintain Libido, FDH and LH levels increase, testosterone replacement therapy

Front 27

Vasectomy

Back 27

In the spermatic chord, takes vas deferens out and clips them, prevents sperm of getting out 10% result in persistant pain, day surgery

Front 28

Tubal Ligation

Back 28

Cut fallopian tubes, prevent egg from getting into uterus

Front 29

Condoms

Back 29

Male and Female condoms a barrier that prevents sperm to gett and prevents STD's

Front 30

Diaphragm

Back 30

fits over the end of uterus "cervix" barrier that keeps sperm from uterus

Front 31

IUD

Back 31

Interuterine Device-Inserted inside the uterus and left there, sperm has no chance to get to the egg

Front 32

Pill

Back 32

Usually a chemical that prevents the release of eggs, fools the body into thinking its pregnant

Front 33

Spermicide

Back 33

a toxin that kills spern

Front 34

Abortion

Back 34

termination of fetus, after fertilization can be mechanical and chemical

Front 35

Castration

Back 35

removal of male gonads

Front 36

Hysterectomy

Back 36

removal of ovaries, radical (?) Hysterectomy-removal of ovaries and uterus

Front 37

Coitus Interuptus

Back 37

ineffective, stopping intercourse before ejaculating

Front 38

Rythym Method

Back 38

Using monthly cycle by having sex during the right time

Front 39

Abstinence

Back 39

if sperm dont meet egg, no fertilization
