maturing primary follicles more deeper into cortex and develop antrums
secondary/antral follicle
316
most mature soon release primary oocyte via ovulation

secretes progesterone and estrogen to maintain endometrium for implantation
corpus luteum
320
ovarian follicles that degenerate before fully maturing
atretic follicle
321
develops in abscence of implantation and fertilization 10-12 days post ovulation
corpus luteum of menstruation
322
post ovulation days
10-12 days
323
aka oviduct
ampulla of oviduct
324
short muscular tubes with one end opening to the peritoneal cavity
fallopian tube, uterine tube, salpinges
325
provide necessary env't for fertilization and early development stage; transport oocyte from ovary to uterus
oviduct
326
mucosal layer
simple columnar w/ ciliated low cells and non ciliated peg cells
327
help transport oocyte to uterus
ciliated low cell
328
secrete sperm capacitation factors
peg cells
329
sloughs off during menstruation
stratum functionale
330
sloughs off during menstruation
stratum functionale
331
remains after menstruation
stratum basale
332
where uterine glands are located
stratum basale
333
enlarged coiled or corkscrew shaped glands w/ secretory products during secretory stage
secretory uterus
334
longest in secretory stage
stratum functionale
335
periodic contraction of helicine arteries and so is ischemia and necrosis of Stratum functionale
menstrual phase
336
desquamated, resulting in menstrual flow
Stratum functionale
337
shortest layer during menstrual phase
S. functionale
338
abscence of complete endothelial lining
menstrual uterus
339
inferior portion of uterus that protrudes into the vagina
cervix
340
mucous secreting simple columnar epithelium and glandular folds
uterine cervix
341
stratified squamous parakeratinized
vaginal portion of cervix
342
site of many cervical cancers
cervical-epithelial junction
343
vaginal mucosa can be distinguished from esophagus due to:
Absence of glands in lamina propria/ No Glands in lamina propria
344
vagina can be distinguished from esophagus by:
absence of muscularis mucosa
345
adheres vagina to surrounding pelvic contents

346
higly modified sweat glands; identical in males and females until puberty
mammary gland
347
few lobules; abundant connective tx and adipose
inactive mammary gland
348
epithelium of vaginal mucosa
stratified squamous parakeratinized epithelium
349
metabolizes lactic acid via bacteria

351
surrounded by dense connective tx and drained by lactiferous duct; empties on nipple surface
lobules
352
intralobular ducts
simple cuboidal epitheliium surrounded by loose connective tx
353
intralobular ducts
simple cuboidal epitheliium surrounded by loose connective tx
354
mammary gland secretes what?
colostrum/milk
355
active mammary gland
less connective tx and adipose tx
356
bound bet epithelial cells and basal lamina
myoepithelial cells
357
contraction causes milk ejection during lactation
