18
Q

Progesterone

A

Sex hormone that is produced by the corpus luteum that is responsible for quieting the uterus during pregnancy

19
Q

Infundibulum

A

Surrounds the ovum and catches the egg to carry it down the reproductive tract

20
Q

Ampulla

A

The first part of the oviduct that is lined with cilia to move it down the reproduction tract

Q

Isthmus

A

Muscular tube that carries the fertilzed zygote to the uterus

23
Q

A

responsible for nutrient exchange between mother and fetus

Responsible for nutrient and gas exchange betweeen mother and fetus
35
Amnion
innermost layer around the fetus, filled with amniotic fluid
36
Allantois
Middle membrane filled with fluid
37
Chorion
outermost layer that conatins necrotic tips that prevents hormonal transfer from embryo to embryo.
