Describe the uterine cycle. Include the following terms: ovary, corpus luteum, estrogen, progesterone, uterus, endometrium, and menstruation. Describe the menstrual cycle and the various phases of this cycle. What happens in each phase, which hormones are important to each phase, and what are the...
Describe the ways in which oogenesis differs from spermatogenesis. Compare/contrast the hormones produced by the ovaries. What are the differences between spermatogenesis and oogenesis? When and where are the gametes produces and where do they mature? 1. Distinguish between spermatogenesis and spermiogene...
the generation of functional oocytesin vitrois not only an important target of reproductive research, aiming to identify the underlying regulatory mechanisms of oogenesis, but also a way to optimize the use of the female germ cell pool to
The differentiation of an ovum into a primary follicle, which then develops into a secondary follicle after fertilisation, is known as oogenesis. In mammals, the initial stage of oogenesis occurs in the ovary's germinal epithelium, while the second porti

which is distinct among hematophagous midges. In the nurse cell, we identified the perinuclear localization of the germline marker, Vasa. The Vasa localization is reminiscent of the nuclear envelope-associated nuage observed by electron microscopy. To determine whetherF. taiwanaVasa (FtVasa) is an...
