Yes
Name enzymes that contribute to different fertilization events

blood flow
real time images
any angle
less expensive

Hyluronidase
Where is a normal area for implantation?
What happens day 8 during implantation?
Syncytiotrophoblast erodes endometrium
What is the blood supply of the breast?
Internal thoracic artery
lateral thoracic artery
thoracoacromial artery
Posterior intercostal arteries
how does air between the objective lens and the coverslip affect image quality?
Decreases resolution
How does the amniotic cavity arise and from which blastocytic tissue it comes from?
Embryoblast forms the flat bilaminar plate called the embryonic disc that then divides into two layers, epiblast and amnion, the amniotic cavity forms between the two layers.
Venous Drainage of the Breasts
Axillary vein
Internal thoracic vein
What do T2 weighted images show?
Bright signal from fluid
intermediate signal from fat
In electron microscopy what are heavy metals and osmium tetroxide used for?
What is the point fertilization begins and ends?
Begins when the egg and sperm cells first contact each other and ends when parental chromosomes come together and intermingle at metaphase of the first mitosis division of the zygote.
What does CT used to generate an image?
Gantry emits rays, computer reads information
give a 3D slice
What histochemical technique would be used in a liver biopsy to assess extent of scar tissue?
Mason’s trichrome- connective tissue
What happens day 6 during implantation?
Blastocyst attaches
A biopsied material is covered in cryoprotectant and immersed in liquid nitrogen. What step in processing is described?
Fixation
Name the most commonly used light microscope?
Compound bright field
Indications and Limitations of CT
Evaluation of lung -parenchyma, soft tissues of the neck, chest and abdomen
data can be ‘windowed’ post processing
quick, inexpensive imaging for brain
very large and expensive
uses ionizing radiation
What’s the blood supply to the Deltoid?
Posterior Circumflex Huméral Artery
Dorsal horn vs Ventral horn?
Dorsal- sensory input
Ventral- motor output
Flexor retinaculum
Anterior of carpal tunnel
shelters median nerve in carpal tunnel
Name results of fertilization
- Completes meiosis of oocyte
- Restores normal diploid number of chromosomes
- Creates genetic variation
- determines sex
- Initiates cleavage of zygote
What does Nuclear Medicine imaging use?
Radiopharmaceuticals/tracers
rates of metabolism/hot spots
diagnose severity or treat a disease
less expensive/more precise than exploratory surgery

Convex-3%
Explain which tissues give rise to the primary and secondary umbilical vesicles
Yolk sac-
hypoblast is continuous with the exocoelomic membrane, forms roof of exocoelomic cavity. They form the viseral lining of the yolk sac. Primary umbilical vesicles.
It gets bigger and cavities appear deep to cytotrophoblast and superficial to exocoelomic membrane. Then called secondary umbilical vesicle
What contains mixed nerves and splits?
Most radiolucent to most radiodense
Air- Alex
Fat-Feels
Soft tissue, fluid- Sorry
Fluid- For

ID 2 layers of embryonic disc and ID where prechordial plate will form.
2 layer: epiblast and hypoblast
prechordial plate is a thickening in the endodermal layer formed by mesododermal cells from the primitive node that migrate rostrally along the midline between ectoderm and endoderm layers
