Gametogenesis-Test #1

        Help!  

Front
Back
Embryology   The formation of basic structures of the body; 2nd-8th week  
🗑
Development   Maturation using basic plan est. during embryogenesis; incl. pre- & post- natal periods  
🗑
Teratology   Study of causes of birth defects  
🗑
Gametogenesis   Production of the 2 cells required for generation of new individual  
🗑
What is the purpose of Meiosis?   1. To reduce chromosome # by 1/2 2. Two cell divisions w/ 1 round of DNA replication 3. 1st division reduces chromosomes from 46 (diploid) to 23 (haploid)  
🗑
Primary germ cells divide by what?   Meiosis  
🗑
How many gametes are produced by 1° spermatocyte (males)?   4 gametes  
🗑
How many gametes are produced by 1° ooctye (females)?   1 gamete  
🗑
Spermatogenesis   Process of prod. of male gamete & modifying it to perform reprod. function  
🗑
Purpose of Spermatogenesis?   1. Takes place in SEMINIFEROUS TUBULES 2. Begins at puberty & continues throughout life 3. 1° spermatocytes by meiosis I produce 2° spermatocytes; 2nd meiotic division 2° spermatocytes=2 spermatids 4. Undergo spermiogenesis  
🗑
Spermiogenesis   Converts immature spermatids to mature spermatozoan  
🗑
Process of Spermiogenesis   1. Spermatids lose most of their cytoplasm 2. Nucleus condenses 3. Acrosome forms which contains the enzymes needed for fertilization 4. Flagellum develops, necessary for motility 5. Process takes 64 days  
🗑
Oogenesis   Formation of the female gamete  
🗑
Process of Oognesis   1. Takes place in ovary 2. Process begins during prenatal develop. 3. Oogonia divide by meiosis I to produce 1° oocytes and replicate DNA 4. By birth 1° oocytes surrounded by sngl layer of follicular cells and stopped at Meiosis I  
🗑
Primary germ cells (1° ooctyes) in females are produced prior to when?   Prior to birth  
🗑
1° ooctyes   Remain dormant till puberty (10-14 yrs) and OMI Oocyte Maturation Inhibitor released by follicular cell; at puberty 1 oocyte/month matures and is released from ovary; 2nd Meiotic division only completed if FERTILIZATION takes place  
🗑
Oogenesis & Spermatogenesis BOTH:   Produce haploid (23) gametes & Produce MATURE gametes beginning puberty  
🗑
Diff. in oogenesis & spermatogenesis   Oogenesis: 1.No stem cell in ovary after birth 2. 1°ooctye=1 mature gamete 3. Large, nonmotile 4. 1 mature gamete prod./month 5.Prod. only till ~50 SPERMATOGENESIS: 1.Spermatogonia present AFTER birth 2. 1°sprmatocyte=4 gametes 3.Small;motile lots prod  
🗑
Types of abnormal gametes   Chromosomal & Morphological  
🗑
Types of Abnormal Chromosomal Gametes   Nondisjunction (Trisomy, Monosomy); Translocations; Deletions  
🗑
Nondisjunction   A chromosomal anomaly that happens when chromosomes don't separate as they normally should. Two Types: Trisomy-3 copies of chromosomes; Monosomy-1 copy of a particular chromosome  
🗑
Translocations   Chromosomes are damaged & repaired but repaired incorrectly  
🗑
Deletions   Large or small segment of chromosomes is lost  
🗑
Types of Morphological anomalies   Sperm: two heads or tails; nonmotile Oocytes: 2 oocytes in 1 follicle; 1 ooctye w/ more than one nucleus (binucleate)  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
