gonadal ridge is neither male nor female but at week 7 testosterone is formed which introduces male gonadal development. Testosterone determining factor is coded for on the Y chromosome. Therefore, if you have the Y chromosome it will produce testosterone determining factor and male gonadal differentiation can begin.

Why is an ectopic pregnancy dangerous?

Ectopic sites have other functions which are impaired by implantation
Why is an ectopic pregnancy dangerous?
The foetus will be squashed
Ectopic sites cannot expand and so rupture
Ectopic sites have other functions which are impaired by implantation
The main risk of ectopic pregnancies are that ectopic sites (usually the Fallopian tube) cannot expand to the same extent as the uterus, and the site ruptures, resulting in extensive haemorrhage.
Cho’s ectopic pregnancy is implanted in the Fallopian tube. If this site ruptures, what arteries will be the source of the haemorrhage? [2]
Uterine artery
Superior vesicular artery
Ovarian artery
Vaginal artery
Internal pudendal artery

what are the different regions of the male urethra? [4]
- preprostatic urethra: is the shortest and extends from the bladder neck to the prostate. Surrounding the urethra at this level is the internal urethral sphincter.
- prostatic urethra is the region which passes through the prostate, and the ejaculatory and prostatic ducts drain into it at this level.
- membranous urethra passes through the deep perineal pouch, and is encircled by the external urethral sphincter. Finally, the
- spongy urethra is the longest part, travelling through the corpus spongiosum of the penis and terminating at the external urethral meatus.

the molecules that are thought are important to be a success in successful implantation are:
what are their roles?
Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) -
Heparin-binding epidermal growth factor (HB-EGF) -
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) -
Human leukocyte antigen-G (HLA-G)
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) -
Transforming growth factor β (TGFβ)
Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) - converts AA to PGE2 promotes invasion and decidualisation
Heparin-binding epidermal growth factor (HB-EGF) - involved in attachment and invasion
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) - involved in angiogenesis
Human leukocyte antigen-G (HLA-G) - inhibits antigen-specific lymphocyte response & decreases NK cell function
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) - regulated by IFNs to promote anti-proliferative effects
Transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) - regulates invasion and proliferation

If fertilisation and implantation occurs:
- what happens to the corpus luteum (due to which hormone) [2]

what happens if the mother is rhesus negative and the fetus is rhesus positve?
i) in the first pregnancy [1]
ii) second pregnancy [1]
If the mother is rhesus negative and the fetus is rhesus positive:
the RBC that pass through into the fetus will sensitise the fetus system,
i) first pregnancy nothing happens
ii) the second pregnancy the antibodies will cross the placenta and destroy the fetal red blood cells.
