Uterine (menses) cycle reason
-develop/shedding of uterine lining
-prep uterus to fertilize ovum
-control estrogen/progesterone
101
Ovarian: Oogenesis (oocyte)
primary oocyte- diploid cell at begin of meiosis
secondary oocyte- division of meiosis
primary follicle- primary oocyte surround by cuboidal layer
secondary follicle- primary oocyte surround by many granulosa cells
tertiary follicle- antrum fills secondary oocyte
corpus luteum- develop from follicle, post ovulation, secrete estro/proges
102
Ovarian: Follicle Phase (1-13)
-hypothalamus secrete GnRH to release FSH/LH
-FSH secretes estrogen (LH), also cause a few tertiary follicles to grow
-negative feedback, lowers FSH/LH, one follicle remains
103
Ovarian: Ovulation (14)
-high estrogen levels, positive feedback on hypo, LH increase
-high LH triggers ovulation, follicle burst, release to fallopian tubes
104
Ovarian: Luteal (15-28)
-remaining follicle becomes corpus luteum and secretes estrogen
-negative feedback lowers FSH/LH
-if no pregnancy corpus luteum dies, if pregnant hCG helps corpus
105
Uterine: Menses (1-5)
-low estrogen and progesterone levels
-stratum functionals sheds
106
Uterine: Proliferative (6-14)
-estrogen levels rise
-grows stratum functionals (needed if pregnant)
-ovum carried to uterus
107
Uterine: Secretory (15-28)
-high progesterone maintain thick endometrial layer
-falling estrogen/progesterone level cause layer to shed (menses)
108
Order of the events after Fertilization
cell division
blastocyst
implantation
hCG hormone
109
What is fertilization
formation of a zygote
ovum-second oocyte-zona pelluida(sperm receptor)-corona radiata(granulosa cells)
110
Blastocyst
-trophoblast (enzyme for implantation) secretes hCG, soon forms chorion (embryonic of placenta)
-inner cell mass form rest of embryo
111
Implantation process
blastocyst attaches to endometrium, trophoblast enzyme helps also removes zona pellucida
112
hCG hormone
-trophblast secretes this, prevents immune sys from rejecting embryo
-secretes estro/proges until placenta forms
113
Embryonic development and membranes
-chorion (trophoblast) for extra membrane
-3 germ layers, ectoderm(skin/nervous), mesoderm(cells/tissue), endoderm(diges/resp sys)
-allantois(umbilical), yolk sac(embryo cells), chorion(placenta embryonic), amnion(amniotic fluid)
114
Placenta functions

2. endocrine secretions: hCG, estrogen, progesterone
3. protection: antibodies
115
Labor stage (pregnancy)
1. dilation- uterus contract, fetus move to cervix, amnion bursts
2. expulsion- fetus through vagina, contractions
3. placenta- uterine contraction resumes, placenta expells
116
Genetics information
-23 homologous chromosomes from each parent (46)
-DNA synthesis duplicate chromosomes, sister chromatid
-each cell has 22 autosomal, 1 set sex chromosomes
117
Mitosis phases
cell division, asexual reproduction
before prophase: DNA synthesis
prophase: chromosome condense, nuclear envelope dissolve
prometaphase: mitotic spindle forms, attach to centromere
metaphase: chromosomes align on plate
anaphase: sister chromatid separate
telophase: new nuclei form, spindle dissolve
(cytokinesis: cells separate)
118
Meiosis phases
produce gametes for sexual reproduction, daughter cells are genetically unique, each cell has half parent chromosome
interphase: DNA synthesis
prophase I: chromosome condense, exchange segments, spindle forms
metaphase I: line up on plate, independent assortment
anaphase I: chromosomes separate
telophase I: 2 new cells
prophase II: nuclear envelope dissolve, new spindle forms
metaphase II: sister chromatids align on plate
anaphase II: chromatids separate
telophase II: 4 haploid daughter cells, genetically unique
119
Genetic diversity
1. crossing over- sister chromatids exchange segments
2. independent assortment- chromosome line up independent of pair
120
Genes and Alleles
alleles- a version of genes, dom/reces, person has 2 alleles per gene
genes- on a chromosome
121
Nondisjunction
error in meiosis, either missing (monosomy) or extra (trisomy) chromosome, mitotic spindle doesn't split chromosomes properly
