Q

spermatogonia

A

under FSH influence during puberty produces primary spermatocytes, then undergoes meiosis to yield spermatids, then undergoes spermiogenesis to form functional sperm

98
Q

vesicular (antral) follicle in female at puberty

A
  • primary oocyte completes meiosis I producing secondary oocyte (arrested at metaphase II) and first polar body

  • secretory
103
Q

menses of menstrual cycle

A

day 1-5 where functional layer of endometrium sloughs off and bleeding occurs

104
Q

proliferative of menstrual cycle

A

day 6-14 where estrogen from growing follicle causes endometrium repair and glands and blood vessels proliferate and endometrium thicken

105
