has two different meanings. In animals, it means development of the embryo inside the body of the mother, eventually leading to live birth, as opposed to laying eggs. In plants, it means reproduction via embryos, such as buds, that develop from the outset without interruption, as opposed to germinating externally from a seed. |

1) Anterior pituitary.(produces)
Follicle-stimulating hormone FSH
2) FSH promotes development of a follicle
3) Follicle secrets two hormones
estrogen and progesterone
4) estrogen does two things
~tells anterior pituitary to stop producing FSH
~tells hypothalamas to produce GnRH
5) gonadotropic-releasing hormone GnRH tells anterior pituitary to start making luteinizing hormone LH
6) LH does two things
~ starts ovulation
~ promotes the development of the courpus luteum
7) courpus luteum secrets progesterone
~ as levels of progesterone rise the anterior pituitarty hults secretion of LH and the corpus luteum begins to degenerate.
