32
Q

The ___ is responsible for the ovulation and the thickening of the uterine lining during menstruation?

A

Luteinizing Hormone or LH

33
Q

Phases of the Menstrual Cycle: After 4 to 5 days of the menstrual cycle, the lining of the uterus is only one cell layer deep, which is very thin.
The ovary produces estrogen as the endometrium proliferates to approximately an eightfold of the usual layer.
From day 5 to 14 of the cycle, the endometrium continues to increase in thickness.

A
  1. PROLIFERATIVE PHASE
34
Q

Phases of the Menstrual Cycle: When there is no fertilization, regression of the corpus luteum starts until its tenth day.
Progesterone and estrogen decrease which causes sloughing off of the uterine lining and the capillaries rupture.
This is the end of the menstrual cycle which contains blood, mucus, endometrial tissues and the unfertilized ovum.
The menses is the only external marker of the cycle, and it also marks the first day of the next cycle.

A

ISCHEMIC PHASE

35
Q

Phases of the Menstrual Cycle: Through the LH, progesterone is formed in the corpus luteum, leading to the endometrium becoming twisted in appearance.
There is an increase in the amount of the capillaries, and the lining becomes rich and spongy

Mostly located in cell nucleus?

A

DEOXYRIBONUCLEIC ACID

53
Q

A variant form of a gene
An alternative form or versions of a gene
Humans as diploid organisms = 2 ___ at each genetic locus on a chromosome
1 ___ is inherited from each parent

A

ALLELES

54
Q

Genetically determined
Passed from parent to offspring (Mendelian Rule)
Most traits not strictly determined by genes, but influenced by both genes and environment?

A

INHERITED TRAIT

55
Q

One mutated copy of the gene in each cell is sufficient for a person to be affected by an autosomal dominant disorder.
In some cases, an affected person inherits the condition from an affected parent.
In others, the condition may result from a new mutation in the gene and occur in people with no history of the disorder in their family.
Examples of Genetic Conditions:
Huntington Disease
Marfan Syndrome, Cystic fibrosis
Sickle cell disease?

A

AUTOSOMAL DISORDER

56
Q

Traits passed down by dominant and recessive alleles of one gene?

A

MANDELIAN GENETIC

57
Q

disorders are caused by mutations in genes on the X chromosome, one of the two sex chromosomes in each cell.
In females (who have two X chromosomes), a mutation in one of the two copies of the gene in each cell is sufficient to cause the disorder.
In males (who have only one X chromosome), a mutation in the only copy of the gene in each cell causes the disorder.
In most cases, males experience more severe symptoms of the disorder than females.
A characteristic of X-linked inheritance is that fathers cannot pass X-linked traits to their sons (no maleto-male transmission).
Examples of Genetic Conditions:
Fragile X syndrome?

A

X-LINKED DOMINANT

58
Q

disorders are also caused by mutations in genes on the X chromosome.
In males (who have only one X chromosome), one altered copy of the gene in each cell is sufficient to cause the condition. In females (who have two X chromosomes), a mutation would have to occur in both copies of the gene to cause the disorder.
Because it is unlikely that females will have two altered copies of this gene, males are affected by X-linked recessive disorders much more frequently than females.
A characteristic of X-linked inheritance is that fathers cannot pass X-linked traits to their sons (no male-to-male transmission).
Examples of Genetic Conditions:
Hemophilia
Fabry disease?

A

X-LINKED RECESSIVE

59
Q

if the mutated gene that causes the disorder is located on the Y chromosome, one of the two sex chromosomes in each of a male’s cells.
Because only males have a Y chromosome, in Y-linked inheritance, a mutation can only be passed from father to son.
Examples of Genetic Conditions:
Y chromosome infertility
Swyer syndrome (some cases)?

A

Y-LINKED

60
Q

___inheritance, two different versions (alleles) of a gene are expressed, and each version makes a slightly different protein.
Both alleles influence the genetic trait or determine the characteristics of the genetic condition.
Examples of Genetic Conditions:
ABO blood group
Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency?

A

CODOMINANT

61
Q

also known as maternal inheritance, applies to genes in mitochondrial DNA.
Mitochondria, which are structures in each cell that convert molecules into energy, each contain a small amount of DNA. Because only egg cells contribute mitochondria to the developing embryo, only females can pass on mitochondrial mutations to their children.
Conditions resulting from mutations in mitochondrial DNA can appear in every generation of a family and can affect both males and females, but fathers do not pass these disorders to their daughters or sons.
Examples of Genetic Conditions:
Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON)?

A

MITOCHONDRIAL
