Document Summary

19th march 2018: lecture seven embryology: cell division: Results in production of two identical cells. Cells contain diploid number of chromosomes, the same as that of a mother cell. Occurs in the gonads (ovaries and testes) It is present in the first phase of meiosis and also in puberty: spermatogenesis: the production or development of mature spermatozoa. It is the monthly reproductive cycle of females. The body prepares itself to formulate a pregnancy (ovaulation) The cycle can differ (regular and irregular) Progesterone = hormone that allows pregnancy to occur: the first week, fertilization: is a process of fusion of male and female gametes (egg and sperm) The genetic material from a haploid sperm cell and a haploid secondary oocyte merges into a single diploid nucleud. Occurs in the uterine tube 12-24 hours after ovulation. Secondary oocyte viable for 24 hours (ready for fertilization) Sperm swim from the vagina into the cervical canal propelled by flagella.
