Cards

Term
why do parames ducts form
Definition
because of lack of AMH
Term
where does oogenesis occur
Definition
in follicles
Term
2 membranes surrounding ovary, 2 parts of ovary
Definition
germinal epi and tunica albuginea, cortex and medulla
Term
oogenesis
Definition
oogonia in primordial follicles > primary oocytes > secondary oocytes
Term
what is arrested in prophase i
Definition
primary oocyte
Term
where are species-specific sperm receptors found
Definition
zona pellucida = ZP proteins
Term
FSH in females
Definition
stimulate enlarging and proliferation of follicular granulosa cells
Term
antrum of follicle
Definition
contains liquor folliculi
Term
previously undifferentiated stromal cells > (2)
Definition
theca interna and theca externa
Term
what cells produce estrogen
Definition
theca interna and granulosa cells
Term
t/f secondary oocyte is in secondary follicle
Definition
f - not always. an oocyte isn't secondary until ovulation.
Term
follicle epi
Definition
stratified cuboidal, collectively called the follicular granulosa
Term
graafian
Definition
= tertiary follicle = most mature
Term
corona radiata
Definition
cells around ovulated oocyte
Term
when does oocyte complete meiosis?
Definition
right before fertilization (arrested at metaphase 2 when ovulated)
Term
corpus luteum
Definition
theca granulosa + theca luteum. produces estrogen and progesterone. > corpus albicans if no pregnancy
Term
what maintains the corpus luteum during pregnancy
Definition
LH
Term
what happens to corpus albicans
Definition
scar tissue is gradually phagocytosed
Term
follicular phase
Definition
~ proliferative phase of endometrium under estrogen influence
Term
luteal phase
Definition
= secretory phase, after ovulation, due to progesterone
Term
menstruation
Definition
= ischemia due to lack of estrogen/progesterone
Term
does uterus have serosa or adventitia
Definition
adventitia on inferior surface and serosa on superior surface (lined by mesothelium)
Term
uterine epi
Definition
simple columnar
Term
stratum basalis
Definition
vs. stratum functionalis
Term
fallopian tube epi
Definition
ciliated
Term
fertilization
Definition
sperm penetrates corona radiata and then undergoes acrosomal reaction at zona pellucida
Term
once fertilization occurs, _ begins
Definition
cleavage
Term
ICM
Definition
inner cell mass = embryoblast
Term
implantation occurs at what endometrial phase
Definition
mid-secretory
Term
gastrulation >
Definition
endo meso ectoderm
Term
HCG
Definition
maintains corpus luteum during pregnancy; is used in pregnancy tests. synthesized by syncytiotrophoblast
Term
fetal side of placenta
Definition
chorioamniotic membrane
Term
chorionic villi epi
Definition
bi-layered: syncytiotroph + cytotroph
Term
remember that placenta photos at decidua level are sometimes taken of
Definition
placenta separate from mother's body = don't look for myometrium
Term
atresia
Definition
spontaneous degeneration of follicles. normal.
Term
what's in the medulla of ovary?
Definition
blood vessels
Term
theca epi
Definition
??simple squamous??
Term
ampulla
Definition
= "opening" of fallopian tube w/ all the fimbrae
Term
oogonia > what at metaphase II
Definition
secondary oocyte + polar body
Term
proliferative phase endometrium / vs.
Definition
stratum basalis and functionalis / even more in secretory phase
Term
cysts in cervix
Definition
nabothian cysts, normal. indicative because there are no glands in vagina.
Term
hemochorial placenta
Definition
= blood + chorion = mom/dau interface
Term
what's inside chorionic villi?
Definition
extra-embryonic mesoderm and fetal blood vessels
Term
resting mammary
Definition
lots of CT
Term
active mammary
Definition
almost no CT, milk shows as pink.
Term
myoepithelial cells in breast
Definition
indistinguishable from CT and such; push out milk due to oxytocin
Term
mammary gland
Definition
branched epithelial invaginations
Term
breast development due to
Definition
estrogen
Term
prolactin
Definition
makes milk fat
Term
breast hormones
Definition
estr = development, prolactin = milk fat, oxytocin = squeezing
