Q

What is the embryological origin of the uterus and upper 1/3 vagina?

A

Paramesonephric ducts
–> fuse ventral to meso mesonephric ducts)
–> uterovaginal primordium
—–> UV primordium (projects to urogenital sinus)

—> Mullerian ubercle –> vaginal plate –> canalization

Q

Where / when does meiosis I/II end?

A

Meiosis I = ends pre-ovulation (at his point a secondary oocyte (23 X) plus 1st polar body is surrounded by zona pellucida and corona radiata (follicular cells)
Meiosis II = ends at fertilization

17
Q

A

Completion of meiosis I

18
Q

What is the order of development of the zygote?

A

Fertilization
Zygote
Cleavage
Morula
Blastocyst
Implantation
