B3 Flashcards
fertilization step 1
Sperm cells release enzymes from acrosome cap to digest the egg’s outer coating.
Fertilization step 2
Sperm move closer through the coating to the plasma membrane.
Fertilization step 3
Egg’s plasma membrane depolarizes after one sperm enters, blocking others.
Fertilization step 4
Sperm and egg nuclei fuse, forming a zygote with 46 chromosomes.
vitro fertilization
FESFI
contraceptions
E & P inhibit FSH & Lh = no ovulation
- Thick cervical mucus
-tubal ligation
prevents egg from moving from ovaries to uterus = no fertilization
Vasectomy
Vas deferens cut
cleavage
division without cell increasing
3 division stages
zygote - morula - blastocyst
morula
when zygote reaches 16 cells ( day3)
bastocyst
morula reaches uterus ( day 5)
trophoblast
extraembryonic structure
embryoblast
develops into embryo
order of being pregnant
F.I.P
implantation
5-7 days after fertilization
-blastocyst attaches to endometrium and secretes enzyme
- implantation completed by day 10-14
Trophoblast secretes
HcG
HGC
same affects as LH
-maintains corpus luteum
- so E & P stay high
what does HCG prevent
menstruation
how long is HGC secreted for
3 months, then placenta secretes E & P
when does trophoblast become embryonic structure
2nd week
amnion
insulates, hydrates, protects
yolk sac
early red blood & digestive tract formation
chorion
secretes HCG
- controls passage of nutrients, gases & waste
