Mnemonics Flashcards
- Sperm look like “FiSH”
- FSH in males
- stimulates spermatogenesis
- LSH in females
- stimulates ovarian follicles
- Leutenizing Hormone (LH) secretes
- “Like Hairy Apes?”
- LH (in males) secretes androgens
- Note: Androgens:
- stimulates or controls the development and maintenance of male characteristics in vertebrates
- This includes the activity of the accessory male sex organs and development of male secondary sex characteristics
- Note: Androgens:
- “Grandma Neb wont live long”
-

Yup.

DNA order
- DNA is READ 3’-5’
- left to right
- like we read
- left to right
- But is synthesized (BUILT) 5’-3’
- largest to smallest
- just how a PYRAMID is built
- largest to smallest
