what is the gestation period amojunt
266 days
human chorionic gonadotropin [hCG] secreted by the ________________
syncytiotrophoblasts
what is the process from going to bilayer (2) to trilayer>
gastruation
the ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm come from what cells?
epiblast
fertilization until infant is born
pregnancy=
-conceptus
= developing offspring
gestation period
gestation period= last menstural cycle to birth
-embryo=
weeks 3-8
-fetus=
9 weeks until birth
10 First Names
10 Names:
- Zygote
- Blastomere (2 cells)
- two daughter cells produced after first cleavage
- Morula (16 cells)
- Blastocyst (100 cells)
- Inner Cell Mass (ICM)
- Bilaminar disc
- going from bilaminar disc to trilaminar disc= gastruation
- Trilaminar disc
- Meat tube
- Embryo (3-8 weeks)
- Fetus (9 weeks-birth)
two daughter cells produced after first cleavage
Blastomere
Blastomere is how many cells
2
Morula is how many cells?
16
going from bilaminar disc to trilaminar disc= _____________
gastruation
oocyte viable for ___ hours
12-24
sperm viable _____ hours
24-72
- when a sperm fuses with an egg to form a zygote
fertilization=
Sperm underdoes_______ before the getting into oocyte
capacitation
final step of sperm maturing so they can fertilize the egg
Capacitation
how does capacitation of sperm happen
-manifested by altered mitochondrial organization in the tail, increased motility, acrosome reaction
event making spermatozoa able of penetrating the zona and capable of fusing with the egg plasma membrane
Acrosomal reaction
during the acrosomal reaction -sperm binds to _____________
zona pellucide
acrosomes release their enzymes to digest the __________
zona pellucid
once sperm penetrates the ooycye
- beta proteins binds to receptors on oocyte membrane
- alpha protein inserts into membrane
____proteins binds to receptors on oocyte membrane
beat
____ protein inserts into membrane
alpha
how does the oocyte prevent polyspermy
- fast block= membrane depolarization stops sperm from fusing to oocyte
- Slow block (zonal inhibiting proteins ZIPs)= destroy sperm receptors and cause sperms already bound to detach
what is a swollen nucleus called
pro nuclei
when pronuclei come together
-fertlization=
fluid filled hollow sphere
-blastocyst=
