Fertilization Flashcards
Site of Fertilization
Ampulla of FT
Membrane which prevents polyspermy, Implantation.
Zona pellucida
Stages of Fertilization.
Capacitation - Acrosomal Reaction - Cortical Reaction - Zonal Reaction.
Zygote is formed by
Fusion of male and female pronucleus
Stages of implantation
Zygote to 2 cell to 4 cell to 8 cell - compaction - differentiation - Cavitation, Hatching - implantation
Compaction -
loosely arranged blastomeres held together by tight junctions
loosely arranged blastomeres held together by tight junctions
Compaction
8 cell to 16 cell is by
Differentiation.
16 cell stage is called
Morula
Morula is
16 cell stage
Formation of blastocyst is by
Cavitation
Cavitation
Formation of blastocyst from morula
Zygote is formed
12-24 hrs after fertilization
2 cell stage is formed ..
24 hrs after fertilization.
morula is formed
3 days after fertilization
Advanced morula - 32 cell stage is formed
4 days after fertilization.
Implantation occurs
6-7 days after fetililzation.
number of cells in blastocyst
58
53 - outer cell mass
5 - inner cell mass.
Outer cell mass forms -
Trophoblast
Inner cell mass gives rise to -
Embryoblast, Embryo proper.
_____ enters uterine cavity for implantation.
Advanced morula
Zona pellucida disappears _______
5 days after fertilization.
Site of implantation
Functional layer of endometrium.
When does fertilization occur
12-24 hrs after ovulation.
