infundibulum
ampulla
isthmus
uterine
the infund thought it was too quiet, turned on the AMP where she was fertilized to panamanian music. got inspired to crawl to the isthmus of panama, where U turn to get implants.

Q

What happens to the other 15-20 primary oocytes that dont reach maturity during each cycle?

A

Degenerate, become atretic, form corpus atreticum.

25
Q

What causes uterine wall lining to grow?

A

Progesterone, estrogen.

26
Q

FSH stimulates the _______ to produce testosterone and androstenedione, and the follicular cells convert this to _____.

A

Theca interna

estrogen

27
Q

When FSH induces estrogen production by the theca interna/follicular cells, what occurs as a result?

A

Endometrium begins proliferative stage
cervical mucus thins for passage of sperm
Anterior pituitary secretes LH (LH surge).

28
Q

What does the LH surge do? (5 things)

A

Completion of meiosis 1, start of meiosis 2
Luteinization (production of progesterone by follicular cells
Increased prostaglandin, ovary wall contraction.
Increased collagenase activity for area surrounding follicle.
Follicle rupture ovulation
Corpus luteum formation.

29
Q

The oocyte is ovulated, and granulosa cells from the _____ _____ helps make the corona radiata.

A

cumulus oophorus

they accumulate around the oocyte.

30
Q

What is the stigma?

A

The bulge on the ovary caused by large follicle.

31
Q

The _______ of the infundibulum tube sweeps and captures the oocyte from the ovulating follicle .

A

Fimbriae.

32
Q

Corpus luteum produces progesterone, causing uterine wall to enter ______ stage.

A

progestational or secretory phase (from proliferative stage).

33
Q

If oocyte not fertilized, what happens to corpus luteum?

A

9 days, shrinks and becomes corpus albicans. Decreased progesterone causes menstrual bleeding.

34
Q

What happens to corpus luteum if fertilization occurs?

A

Survives from signals of HcG from synciotiotrophoblast. becomes corpus luteum of pregnancy.

35
Q

After the 4th month, corpus luteum regresses and progesterone is now produced by the ______

A

trophoblastic placenta.

36
Q

Sperm migrate from cervix to uterine tube via

A

uterus muscle contraction

37
Q

Sperm slow down in the ____, cease movement in the _____, and race once ovulation happens.

A

slow in unterine, cease move in isthmus.

38
Q

What is capacitation (spermatozoa, oocyte)

A
  1. Conditioning stimulated by sperm/uterine wall interaction, glycoprotein and seminal proteins at head of sperm removed to reveal acrosome membrane.
39
Q

Acrosome needed to penetrate the ___.

A

Zona pellucida.

40
Q

How does spermatozoa penetrate corona radiata?

A

freely pass through disorganized corona radiata.

41
Q

What happens when the first spermatozoa makes contact with the oocyte?

A

cortical granules at oocyte surface releases lysosomal enzymes, harden the zona pellucida preventing polyspermy.

42
Q

After fertilization, the secondary oocyte becomes a ____.

A

Ovum.

43
Q

Fun fact: sperm takes 30 minutes to 6 days to travel from cervix to oviduct. Also, ovulated oocyte only survives 24 hours without fertilization. You can have sex with a girl and conception may not happen for a week! Gotta wait until her period to find out for sure!

A

That sucks dude. I feel ya.

44
Q

Degeneration of ____ around blastocyst must occur before implantation.

A

zona pellucida.

45
Q

When does implantation usually occur? (how many days after conception)

A

6-7 days.

46
Q

____ on the outside of trophoblast cells bind to carb receptors of endometrium, facilitate implantation.

A

L selectin.

47
Q

Usually the blastocyst will implant on the (anterior or posterior) surface of the uterus?

A

posterior.

48
Q

After the 8th day of implantation, the trophoblast becomes what?

A

Cytotrophoblast

Syncytiotrophoblast

49
Q

What does the syncytiotrophoblast secrete?

A

secretes HcG. tells corpus luteum to survive for 4 months and continue progesterone production.

50
Q

At day 9 when the blastocyst has completely penetrated the endothelium, the endothelium is closed by____.

A

fibrin coagulum.

51
Q

_______ begin to develop in the syncytiotrophoblast, which ultimately form the placenta?

A

Trophoblastic lacunae.

52
Q

At day 11-12 of implantation, the syncytiotrophoblast extends to the ______, thus establishing the uteroplacental circulation.

A

maternal sinusoids.

53
Q

What does Heuser’s membrane (exocoelomic) membrane help make?

A

Yolk sac.

54
Q

Some of the hypoblast cells of Heuser’s exocoelomic membrane becomes the ______, which can be further divided into the ____ and ___ by a coelom called___.

A

Extraembryonic mesoderm,
further divided into extraembryonic splanchnic and somatic mesoderm
separated by extraebryonic coelom.

55
Q

What is the decidua reaction?

A

cells of endometrium polyhedral, fill with glycogen and lipids, tissue edematous.

56
Q

Day 13. What is primary villi?

A

Projections of cytotrophoblast into the syncytiotrophoblast.

57
Q

Day 13, hypoblasts from a secondary yolk sac, pinching off primary yolk sac exocoelomic cavity. Pinching off forms

A

exocoelomic cysts.

58
Q

Expansion of extraembryonic coelom creates

A

chorionic cavity.

59
Q

In the chorion, the extraembryonic somatic mesoderm formerly lining the inside of the cytotrophoblast now are called the ____.

A

chorionic plate.

60
Q

The connecting stalk is made out of _____. This stalk eventually becomes the _____.

A

extraembryonic somatic mesoderm (chorionic plate mesoderm).

eventually becomes umbilical cord.

61
Q

2weeks of development is called week of 2s.

A

Trophoblast becomes syncitio, cytotrophoblast
Embryoblast becomes epiblast hypoblast,
extraembryonic mesoderm becomes splanchnic, somatic,
2 cavities form (amniotic, yolk sac).
