Spermatogenesis oogenesis impalntation placenta
Mc method of sex deteRM ination
Physical exam
Testis and ovary develop from
Genital ridge
In fetus germ cells
Bipotential
Derived from epiblast/ectoderm of yolk sac
How is chromosome expressed
46(xx) /46+xx
Spermatogonia to primary speematocyte
Mitosis 46xy-46xy
One spermatogonia gives
16 primary spermatocyte
One spermatogonia give rise to
64 spermatids / 64 sperms
Spermiogenesis time
14 days
In spermiogenesis
No mitosis / meiosis
Sperm remain fertilisable for
2 days
Size of sperm
55 micron
What do sperm lack
Rer
Where does capacitation begin
Cervix
Capacitation major part takes part in
Fallopian tube
Time for capacitation
7hrs
What does capacitation mean
Sperm becomes hypermotile
Site at which sperms attain motility
Caudal end of epididymis
What is the first stimulus for letting cells to produce testosterone
Hcg
3hormones helping in spermatogenesis
FSH
Lh
Testosterone ( major)
Inhibin released from Sertoli cells cause feedback inhibition of
FSH
Testosterone released from leydig cells cause feedback inhibition of
Lh which in turns cause feedback inhibition of gnrh/gnsh
When does meiosis 1 arrest in oogenesis
Diplotene stage of prophase
Arrested stage is called as
Dictyate stage
What is primordial follicles
Primary oocyte surrounded by follicular cells of ovary
