Human Development Flashcards
development involves
cell division and differentiation
DIFFERENTIATION IS THE CREATION OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF CELLS
changes in anatomical structures
INCLUDES GRADUAL MODIFICATION OF PHYSICAL AND PHYSIOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS
development begins at
fertilization
fertilization
fusion of 2 haploid gametes (egg and sperm)
each has 23 chromosomes to produce a zygote with 46 chromosomes
fertilization occurs in
the uterine tubes (IN THE AMPULLA REGION)
AKA fallopian tubes
spermatozoa cant fertilize an ovum until
after capacitation
steps of fertilization
ovulation
fertlization
ovulation
the oocyte is in metaphase of meiosis II
IT DIDNT COMPLETE MEIOSIS II
oocyte and polar body is surrounded by corona radiate
IT COMPLETED MEIOSIS II
fertilization step
oocyte is surrounded by sperm
acrosomal enzyme from several sperms create gaps in corona radiata
what happens when one sperm makes contact with the oocyte membrane
sperm and oocyte fuse
process of meiosis will be complete
ovulation occurs before
the oocyte is completely mature
BEFORE MEIOSIS IS COMPLETED
what phase of meiosis II is an ovulated oocyte in
metaphase
when is meiosis complete
if an egg is fertilized
what happens to the oocyte if fertilization does not occur
the oocyte will disintegrate without completing meiosis
oocyte is surround by
corona radiate
spermatozoa releases
hyaluronidase and acrosin
hyaluronidase and acrosin are required to
penetrate corona radiate
a single spermatozoan contacts oocyte.. this will cause fertilization to begin
oocyte activation
polyspermy prevented by cortical reaction
development can be divided into
prenatal
post natal
prenatal development begins at _____ and ends with _____
prenatal development begins at fertilization and ends with birth
prenatal development includes
embryological development
CHANGES OCCURING DURING FIRST 2 MONTHS AFTER FERTILIZATION
fetal development
BEGINS AT THE START OF 9 WEELS AND CONTINUES UNTIL BIRTH
postnatal development
starts at birth and continues
first trimester
period of embryological and early fetal development
what are the 4 processes that occur during the first trimester
cleavage
implantation
placentation
embryogenesis
preembryonic stage
first 16 days of development for an embryo
what are the 3 processes for an embryo
cleavage
implantation
embryogenesis
cleavage
1st cell division
occurs in first 3 days while conceptus migrates down uterine tube
