Q

morula fills with ____ to form a ___ ___ called the ___/____

A

fluid
hollow hole
blastocyst/blastula

24
Q

2 layers of the blastocyst + functions

A

inner cell mass (developed into embryo)
trophoblast (outer layer…cont)

25
Q

trophoblast turns into ___ which then turns into ___

A

turns into the chorion which helps form the placenta

26
Q

implantation occurs on days ___

A

5-7

27
Q

trophoblast secretes ___ which____

A

enzymes which digest a small hole in the endometrium

28
Q

what happens once the trophoblast secretes enzymes (3)

A
  • blastula sinks into the hole in endometrium with inner cell mass against the wall
  • endometrium tries to heal wound therefore trapping the blastocyst
  • implantation has occurred and the woman is now pregnant
29
Q

what needs to be prevented in order for the blastocyst and endometrium to not be lost

A

menstruation

30
Q

what do trophoblasts secrete to maintain corpus luteum

A

hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin)

31
Q

hCG mimics LH meaning that ___

estrogen and progesterone levels remain high

32
Q

what prevents menstruation

A

high estrogen and progesterone levels

33
Q

during the second week the blastocyst becomes a ___

A

gastrula

34

A

1- ectoderm
2- mesoderm-
3- endoderm

36
Q

ectoderm=

A

skin and nerves

37
Q

mesoderm=

A

middle layer
muscles, skeleton, reproductive, excretory and circulatory systems

38
Q

endoderm=

A

digestive and respiratory systems

39
Q

morphogenisis=

A

developing distinct structures that make up an organism via differentiation

what forms the mesoderm cells that will eventually become the skeleton

A

notochord

42
Q

during the 3rd week what develops from the ectoderm and what will it become

yolk sac is attached to ___

attached to abdomen of embryo

49

produces first blood cells and future egg and sperm
involved in forming digestive system

50

breaks before birth “water breaking”

51
Q

chorion and attaches embryo/fetus to uterine wall

54
Q

placenta function (2)

A

2 arteries 1 vein

56
Q

arteries of umbilical cord carry
