Oogenesis and formation of primordial follicles - anatomy female reproduction tract
3 important questions on Oogenesis and formation of primordial follicles - anatomy female reproduction tract
A uterus duplex and bicornuate?
There are also different types found in the mammals --> duplex (two cervices, two vaginas), bicornuate (twee uterine horns, one cervix)
Anatomy and function of the ovaries (eierstokken)
- In abdominal cavity on both sides of uterus
- a vascularized structure, because it is a endocrine structure
- Functions:
- storage of oocytes (in follicles)
- development of oocyte to ‘mature’ oocyte (oogenesis and folliculogenesis)
- hormone production (oestrogen, progesterone, androgens) -in abdominal cavity on both sides of uterus
Uterus of a female and the layers?
- Progestron, the mucosa layer is thin (the endometrium is thinner).
- Estrogen, leads to a much thicker endometrium layer
The function of the uterine glands:
All mammalian uteri contain glands in the endometrium that synthesize or transport and secrete substances essential for survival and development of the conceptus (embryo/fetus and associated extraembryonic membranes)
The question on the page originate from the summary of the following study material:
- A unique study and practice tool
- Never study anything twice again
- Get the grades you hope for
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
