Cards in this deck (29)
- 1FunctionGametogenesis
- 2Internal/external/bothOviparous -egg
Viviparous - birth
Ovoviviparous - embryo develops in an egg inside the body - 3What determine sex in mammals/birds?Sex chromosomes
XY/ZZ - Male
XX/ZW - Female - 4Hermaphroditic animalsSimultaneous or Sequential
- 5Female genitalia anatomy (11)Ovary
fimbriae
infundullum
ampulla
isthmus
intramural portion
Fundus
uterus
body
cervix
vagina - 6OvariesEndocrine organs
Oestrogen
Progesterone - 7Oogenesis - Stage 1Primordial follicles.
Enclosed by single layer of flattened follicular/granulosa cells and basal lamina.
Stimulated at puberty to 1' follices. - 8Stage 2 - 1' follicles unilayeredOocyte enlargens and fol/gran. cells ^ in size - form cuboidal cells.
Oocyte produces Zona Pellucida
Glycoproteins important in binding spermatozoa produced - 9Stage 2 - 1' Follicle multilayeredFol/gran cells ^ number/thicc, become stratified
Z.P. assembled - 10Stage 32' follicle
Follicular fluid-filled spaces coalesce to form a cavity
Granulosa cells start producing oestrogen - 11Stage 4 - what is formed?Graafian (4') follicle)
Antrum produced - large fluid filled cavity - 12What does C. radiata do?C. radiata surrounds oocyte provides nutrients
- 13What stimulates the proteolytic activity of ovulation?Gonadotropin LH
- 14Where is ovum expelled + picked up?Entrance of uterine tube
- 15How do fimbriae facilitate this process?Vibrate to generate a current
- 16Corpus luteumEndocrine function
follicular cells release progesterone - 17Corpus albicansOvarian scar of Conn.T. after C.L. degeneration
- 18Where does fertilisation usually occur?Ampulla
- 19Secretory cells of uterine tube epitheliaPeg cells
watery secretions for gamete nourishment
Ciliated
Cilia beat rate in response to oestrogen - 20Cause of ectopic pregnancyChlamydia trachomantis
- 21Ectopic pregnancyFertilised egg embeds in uterine tube or peritoneal cavity
- 22Comparative anatomySimplex - one child
Duplex - multiple (rodent)
Bicornate (pig)
Bipartite (sheep/cow) - 23Uterine wall anatomyPara peri/visceral peri/peri
Endometrium
Myometrium - 24Endometrium (3)epithelial layer
Menstrual cycle
zygote embeds here - 25Myometrium (3)Interwoven smooth muscle
CT-Hormonal response = hypertrophy/hyperplasia during pregnancy - 26DiagramPara/peri/myo/endo -> stratum basalis/functionalis
- 27EndocervixSimple columnar cells
Crypts
mucus secreting cells (oestrogen decreases viscosity) - 28EctocervixS.S. Non-K. E
- 29Transformation zonedysplasia - precancerous epithelial changes - associated with HPV
