Primary follicle - Correct Answer ✅(2) Begin forming in puberty Graafian follicle (tertiary follicle) - Correct Answer ✅(4) one produced every 28 days until menopause (age 40-45) (13/year, approx. 400 in a lifetime) 200x bigger than sperm cell Anatomy, Female Reproductive System Question And Answers (Latest Exams 2023) at birth: 2 million oogonia (potential egg cell) at puberty: 400,000 Ovum - Correct Answer ✅(8) If not fertilized in 48 hours after ovulation, the egg will begin to decompose. Corpus luteum - Correct Answer ✅(6) Develops from an ovarian follicle during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle, following the release of a secondary oocyte from the follicle during ovulation. Remains in the ovary while the oocyte follows the uterine tube to the uterus. Uterine tube - Correct Answer ✅(11) Extend to ovaries Lined with cilia. Cilia beat constantly to move egg or fluid towards uterus. keeps pathogens from traveling into body cavity walls made of smooth muscle, egg moves through peristalsis The egg enters here through the fimbriae and is moved through here by cilia. Anatomy, Female Reproductive System Question And Answers (Latest Exams 2023) perimetrium - Correct Answer ✅(14) Outside lining of the uterus. Part of parietal peritoneum (lining of abdominal cavity) retroperitoneal (outside of body cavity) Vagina - Correct Answer ✅(3) Birth canal. Acidic mucus secretions prevent infection Secretions from resident bacteria (live in birth canal) Yeast infections sometimes occur after taking anti-biotic because it kills resident bacteria Hostile to sperm cells Labium minora - Correct Answer ✅(12) Labium majora - Correct Answer ✅(11) Usual site of fertilization - Correct Answer ✅(2) Takes place in the distal 2/3 of the uterine tube within 12-24 hours after ovulation. Anatomy, Female Reproductive System Question And Answers (Latest Exams 2023) Upon ovulation, the egg will continue to the uterus, It takes about 1 week for the egg to reach the endometrial lining. Morula - Correct Answer ✅(5) Around day 4 Blastocyte - Correct Answer ✅(6) about day 6 Implantation - Correct Answer ✅(10) About day 7 Fertilization - Correct Answer ✅Sperm cells exit male's urethra. Sperm cells enter vagina. Sperm cells pass through the cervical os (21) of the uterus. Sperm cells pass through the uterine cavity (2) Sperm cells enter the proximal portion of the uterine tube (11) and then travel to the distal portion to encounter the egg. If an egg is present, fertilization could occur. Must take place in distal portion of uterine tube to allow time (7 days) for fertilized egg to become blastocyst before implanting in uterine wall. Anatomy, Female Reproductive System Question And Answers (Latest Exams 2023) Prostatitis - Correct Answer ✅Due to a bacterial infection. Inflammation may occur, causing a constriction of the utrethra, making urination difficult. Syphilis - Correct Answer ✅Caused by a spirochete bacterium, treponema pallidum. 3 stages: 1. Primary syphilis: A chancre appears at the site of infection (penis or vagina) 2-6 weeks after infection. It disappears 4-6 weeks after appearing. 2. Secondary syphilis: Syphilis reappears a chancres in other parts of the body. It spreads via the lymphatics. Lymph nodes enlarge and palms and soles show signs of lesions. 3. Tertiary syphilis: Can manifest after 5 years in the vasa vasorum of the aorta or in the nervous system. More than 80% of tertiary syphilis cases become syphilic aortitis. 10% become neurosyphilitic. Gonorrhea - Correct Answer ✅Caused by bacterium neisseria gonorrhoeae. Causes a purulent urethral discharge. Left untreated, may result scarring from the bacteria entering the: (Males) urethra and the vas deferens. Anatomy, Female Reproductive System Question And Answers (Latest Exams 2023) Suspensory ligament - Correct Answer ✅(12) Extends from the lateral edge of the ovary to the pelvic wall. Ovarian ligament - Correct Answer ✅(15) Extends from the medial edge of the ovary to the uterus (about the area of the uterine tubes) External os - Correct Answer ✅(25) Opening into the uterus. Secondary follicle - Correct Answer ✅(3) Fluid begins to form around ova Mitosis - Correct Answer ✅zygote has 46 chromosomes 23 from sperm 23 from ova All cells of the body have same # of chromosomes (cloning) Games - Correct Answer ✅egg and sperm cells Gemetogenesis - Correct Answer ✅meiosis - reduction division Anatomy, Female Reproductive System Question And Answers (Latest Exams 2023) Occurs in: Testes - spermatogenesis Ovaries - oogenesis oogenesis - Correct Answer ✅Occurs to only 1 cell at a time Once every 28 days in the ovary, from puberty to menopause. Puberty (females) - Correct Answer ✅10-15 years menopause - Correct Answer ✅40-45 years Fraternal twins - Correct Answer ✅2 eggs released both fertilized can be different sex, different DNA separate placentas separate amniotic membrane Identical twins - Correct Answer ✅1 egg fertilized by one sperm cell Cell divides into 2 identical cells same placenta and amniotic membrane same sex, DNA Anatomy, Female Reproductive System Question And Answers (Latest Exams 2023) Corona radiata - Correct Answer ✅(7) "radiating crown" protects/surrounds ovum sperm cell must dissolve this to reach the egg. One sperm does not have enough enzyme to break through, requires many sperm Once sperm enters a chemical change occurs around egg, preventing any other sperm from entering. If 2 sperm enter at same time, cell won't divide, too many chromosomes - cell dies Ovulation - Correct Answer ✅(8) Rupture of follicle - caused by high concentration of LH hormone Ovum swept into uterine tube by ciliary action Ova surrounded by protective cells (corona radiata) that must be disolved by sperm Before ovulation: follicle cells secrete estrogen After ovulation: follicle cells secrete progesterone Corpus luteum - Correct Answer ✅(6) Anatomy, Female Reproductive System Question And Answers (Latest Exams 2023) In females: Rise in this hormone triggers ovulation and development of the corpus luteum.

Oxytocin - Correct Answer ✅pituitary hormone - secreted from neurohypophysis stimulates uterine contraction stimulates lactation neutralized by testosterone in males menstruation - Correct Answer ✅Day 1: Menses begin (FSH high, LH low) Day 4/5: Menses stop Somewhere between Day 5 & Day 15: Follicle developes Stimulates estrogen production (Causes: FSH drops, LH increases) Day 15: Ovulation (LH high, FSH low) Day 18/19: Corpus luteum forms Produces increase in progesterone (causes: FSH drop?) Somewhere between day 19 & Day 28: Corpus luteum breaks down (no implantation) Progesterone drops (causes FSH high, LH low) Anatomy, Female Reproductive System Question And Answers (Latest Exams 2023) Cycle begins again
