|
Term
|
Definition
|
|
Term
2 layers that surround the OOCYTE? |
|
Definition
Zona pellucida(ZP): -inner layer -glycoprotien Corona Radiata (CR): -outer layer -made of follicular cells -23 haploid cells (chromosomes) |
|
|
Term
What is expelled through the ovaduct? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
|
Definition
-recieves the secondary oocyte -extend laterally from uterus |
|
|
Term
what are the 3 parts of the fallopian tubes? |
|
Definition
Infundibulum-(distal) -surrounds the fimbrae moves to attract egg Ampulla (medial part) -longest widest part of uterine tube -NORMAL fertilization site Isthmus (proximal) -opens to the uterus |
|
|
Term
What are the 3 layers of the uterus? |
|
Definition
1. Perimetrium(Outer layer) 2. Myometrium (middle layer) -thick muscle layer -ussually smooth muscle -used to push out baby 3. endometrium (inner layer) -affected by hormones -filled blood vs and glands -normal site of implantation |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
-contains 23 chromosomes -acrosome (cap like organelle that covers the anterior portion of the organelle 66% of the head) -acrosome contains enzymes to help break the secondary oocytes protective system |
|
|
Term
what are the 3 pieces of the tail called? |
|
Definition
1. middle piece -contains mitochondria to keep it swimming 2. principle piece 3. end piece |
|
|
Term
how many sperm reach fertilization site? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
|
Definition
-maturation of the sperm -occurs durring its travels up the uterine tubes -takes around 7 hours for it to capacitate -when sperm hits cr, it undergoes acrosome reaction. |
|
|
Term
When does fertilization ussually occur? |
|
Definition
-12-24 hours after ovulation - gestational age is calculated from the onset of the mothers last menstral period (LMP) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
is considered the true age of the embryo |
|
|
Term
Penetration of the ZP and CR, give some of the steps that occur. |
|
Definition
-acrosome rxn releases enzymes: hylauronidase to get the sperm through CR -acrosin and neuromindase get the sperm through ZP -once this occurs, zp undergoes Zona RXN to make the zp inpenatrable to all other sperm. |
|
|
Term
Penetraition of the secondary oocyte, give some steps. |
|
Definition
-sperm enters and looses tail -oocyte induced to become mature ovum -male and female nucleus=ZYGOTE |
|
|
Term
What are the results from fertilization? |
|
Definition
-Diploid (23Mother, 23Father)=46 chromes -Chromosomal sex is established (XX or XY) -species variation -Initiation of cleavage |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
-30 hours after fertilization -rapid mitotic division of the zygote -starts to move towards the uterus -resulting cells are called BLASTOMERES |
|
|
Term
when is a zygote called a morulla? |
|
Definition
-by 12-16 cells, formed by the blastomere |
|
|
Term
Blastocyst formation, what are some steps? |
|
Definition
-morulla enters uterus -blastocyst cavity forms |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
-fluid enters morula and creates a cavity called blastocyst cavity |
|
|
Term
what are the two parts that seperate the blastocyst cavity? |
|
Definition
1. trophoblast (outer cell mass) -"nourish" -forms the wall of blastocyte 2. embryoblast (inner) -becomes the embryo |
|
|
Term
When does the Zona Pullucida degerate? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
|
Definition
blastocyst attaches to the endometrial epithelium |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
trophoblast separtes into 2 different parts: 1. cytotrophoblast -inner layer -celluar -very organized 2. syncytiotrophoblast -outer layer -multi nucleated mass -releases substances to erode maternal tissues -can cause spotting |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
single layer of cuboidal cells that form in the embryoblast. HYPOBLAST will form the blastocyst cavity. |
|
|
Term
When do we have superficial implantation? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
|
Definition
-occurs when implantation occurs outside of the uterus -most common tubal pregnancies (ampulla) -last up to 8 weeks before burst |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
-can cause scarring in the uterine tubes causing the egg not to travel the right path for fert/implantation. -std's can cuase PID |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
-is a small space formed around the 2 layers of the trophoblast and the embryoblast. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
1. Epiblast (Columnar, Tall) -located inferior to the amniotic cavity 2. Hypoblast (cuboidal cells) -form the roof of the blastocyst cavity |
|
|
Term
When is the embryoblast called a yolk sac? |
|
Definition
when the bilaminer disc is formed. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
-filled with mothers blood and gladular secretions -lacunae develop in sycytiotrophoblast spaces -primodial uteroplacental circulation |
|
|
Term
where does the embryo recieve it's nourishment from? |
|
Definition
lacunae and yolk sac (2-3 weeks) |
|
|
Term
By which day is implantation complete? (after the lacuae forms) |
