Gametogenesis Flashcards
This cell divides to make spermatogonia and Oogonia
Germinal Epithelium cells
Oogonium divide into…
primary Oocytes and more Oogonia
Primary Oocytes begin meiosis 1 but stop when?
Prophase 1
what divides to make follicle cells?
Germinal Epithelium
The Follicle cells surround what to make what?
Primary oocytes to form Primary follicles
After puberty, before ovulation, … completes meiosis 1 to create what?
primary oocyte completes meiosis 1 to create to create a haploid secondary oocyte and the first haploid polar body.
Primary follicle develops to what?
Secondary follicle,. or Graafian follicle
Explain Graafian follicle to Ovulation stages
the Graafian follicle travels to the surface of the ovary, it bursts, and releases the secondary oocyte.
The leftover Graafian follicle in the ovary becomes a …
corpus luteum
After fertilisation, what happens?
Meiosis 2 takes place, and the secondary oocyte becomes an ovum and the second polar body.
In spermatogenesis, the germinal epithelium cells divide into what?
Spermatogonia and more geminal epithelium
Spermatogonia divide into more spermatogonia, and what?
primary spermocytes
What undergoes meiosis to produce secondary spermocytes?
primary spermocytes
meiosis 2 of the secondary spermocytes created what?
haploid spermatids
Spermatozoa are developed what?
spermatids
