The reproductive system in females
20 important questions on The reproductive system in females
What is typical about oogenesis?
How and when are gonads formed?
When does a secondary oocyte develop?
- Higher grades + faster learning
- Never study anything twice
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
What is a primordial follicle?
What happens to oocytes after birth?
What is the corona radiata?
What is the difference between a polar body and an oocyte?
What is the difference between male and female gametogenesis?
What are protein complexes used for?
What is the mechanism of MPF? What is the role of APC/C?
Cyclin B1 is a regulatory subunit that keeps CDK1 inactive. APC/C degrades cyclin B1, leaving CDK1 active.
No APC/C causes cell cycle arrest (CDK1 inactive). Mos–MEK–MAPK–p90Rsk–Erp1/Emi2 (cytostatic factor) pathway keeps APC/C inactive, leading to meiotic arrest.
What is the diplotene stage?
What happens in the luteal phase when there is no fertilization?
What is the function of uterine tubes?
What causes movement in the uterine tubes?
What are the three layers of the uterus wall?
- Endometrium (thin, inner glandular mucosa)
- Myometrium (outer muscular layer)
- Perimetrium (an incomplete serosa (smooth membrane) continuous with the peritoneum)
What happens during the different uterine cycle phases?
- Menses: degeneration of functional zone
- Proliferative phase: restoration of the endometrium
- Secretory phase: endometrial glands enlarge and accelerate their rates of secretion
In which layer of the cell wall do the changes of the uterine cycle occur?
Which hormones control the female reproductive cycle?
- FSH
- Estrogen
- GnRH
- LH
What is the function of FSH in the female reproductive cycle?
What is the function of estrogen in the female reproductive cycle?
