chromaffin cells

22
Q

5 steps of the menstral cycle

A
  1. 0 day: release estrogen, primary follicle
  2. estrogen: thinkens endometrial lining “proliferation phase”, peaks on 14th day to release LH
  3. LH: day 14, ovulation, forms corpus leuteum
  4. Corpus leuteum: makes progestrone “secretory phase”, makes inhibin–> stops FSH
  5. corpus leuteum: either dies or makes progesterone in the presence of HCG
  6. HCG: make by placenta, stimulates the corpus leuteum to make progesterone
23
Q

____ horm stimulates the corpus leuteum to make progesterone–> the corpus leuteum proliferates

A

HCG

24
