Wednesday - Histo of girl parts - aubie aubie Flashcards
oviduct
transport of sperm/egg/infection
uterus
where implantation happens
helps make placenta in pregnancy
placenta
exchanges stuff between mom and baby
makes a fluid environment
Ovary is held by what
mesovarium (broad ligament)
peritoneal cover - “germinal epithelium”
Hilum where stuff goes in and out
ovarian medula
- what’ there
- what fiber types
loose fibroelactic connective tissue. has blood, lymph, nerves, elastic fibers
Ovary cortex layers
Tunica albuginea
- beneath germinal epithelium
- fibrous CT
- increases with age
stroma
- reticular fibers
- follicles
where does the oxarian cortex come from
yolk sac
oogenesis
from primordial germ cells
- have 46 chormosomes
- surrounded by follicular cells
primary oocytes are stopped at what stage
prophase of first mitotic divistion
- from 3rd fetal month until adulthood
how many polar bodies are made from an oocyte
3
follicular development
cells around the oocyte become taller and cuboidal - form layers. are then called granular cells
layer made from protein secreted by granaular cells and oocyte
zona pellucida
secondary follicle if:
there’s an antrum - liquid layer
theca interna makes what?
androgens
primordial follicles
primary oocyte -large nucleus surrounding cells called follicular cells - flattened - have FSH receptors
primary follicles
20-50/month respond to FSH - still in prophase 1 oocyte enlarges follicular cells start turning into granulosa cells zona pellucida starts
multilaminar primary follicle
just more layers of granular cells.
secondary follicles
start to see formation of antrum (small spaces)
layer that surrounds oocyte in secondar follicle
cumulus oophorus
layer of cells that surrounds zona pellucida in secondar follicle
corona rediata
theca interna
highly vascular
make androgens
theca externa
fusiform cells and collagen
no secretions
look like smooth muscle
mature follicle. part that connect the oocyte to the wall
cumulus oophorus
What causes ovulation
what cells are receptive
surge of LH
granulosa and theca cells
- usually one 1 follicle responds
stigma formation?
spot where graafian follicle breaks out of ovary
follicular near albuginea thins out. decreased blood flow. rupture –> cumulus mass and follicular fluid go out and captured by fibria
