Oogenesis
The formation of the ovum (mature female gamete) from undifferentiated germ cells is called oogenesis. This process takes place in the ovaries (female gonads). Oogenesis consists of three stages known as the multiplication phase, growth phase, and maturation phase.
Cell Division
Cell division involves the formation of new daughter cells from the parent cells. It is a part of the cell cycle that takes place in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Cell division is required for three main reasons:

- What is the experimental evidence that demonstrates direct evidence that chemical carcinogens are able to produce oncogenes?The palladin gene, which plays a role in pancreatic cancer (see theintroduction to this chapter), is said to be an oncogene. Which of itscharacteristics suggest that it is an oncogene rather than a tumorsuppressorgene?How would mutations that completely ablate the function of the androgen receptor impact the phenotypic development of humans with XY chromosomes? a. Patients would appear phenotypically female. b. Patients would appear phenotypically male with underdeveloped secondary sex characteristics. c. Patients would appear phenotypically male, but cannot produce sperm. d. Patients would express both male and female secondary sex characteristics.
- SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY Prostate cells usually require testosteroneand other androgens to survive. But some prostate cancercells thrive despite treatments that eliminate androgens.One hypothesis is that estrogen, often considered a femalehormone, may be activating genes normally controlled by an androgen in these cancer cells. Describe one or moreexperiments to test this hypothesis. (See Figure 11.9 to reviewthe action of these steroid hormones.)Our government has finite funds to devote to cancer research.Discuss which of the following areas of research you think shouldreceive the most funding.A. Identifying and characterizing oncogenes and tumorsuppressorgenesB. Identifying agents in our environment that cause cancerC. Identifying viruses that cause cancer D. Devising methods aimed at killing cancer cells in the bodyE. Informing the public of the risks involved in exposure tocarcinogensIn the long run, in which of these areas would you expect successfulresearch to be the most effective in decreasing human mortalitydue to cancer?Researchers measured prolactin and growth hormone in the blood plasma of six subjects at regular intervals over a 24-hour period. The investigators were interested in determining if the levels of these two hormones cycle over a 24-hour period. The Figure presents the results of their experiments, with the y axis values showing the amount of each hormone expressed as a percentage of the 24-hour mean value, and each point showing the average of the six subjects levels. FIGURE Mean concentrations of prolactin and growth hormone in plasma, averaged for six subjects and expressed as a percentage of the average concentrations measured for the 24-hour period. Do the results support the hypothesis that the changes in prolactin level over a 24-hour period are associated with the sleepwake cycle? Source: From J. F. Sassin et al. 1972. Human prolactin: 24-hour pattern with increased release during sleep. Science 177:12051207.

These individuals are asymptomatic, but compared to their unaffected relatives, which of the following will be decreased? Group of answer choices Urinary calcium Plasma calcium Bone resorption Exocytotic activity in chief cells of the parathyroid glandsWhy are dominant mutations in proto-oncogenes generally not inherited? A. Inherited mutations in proto-oncogenes would not affect cell division rate B. Inherited mutations in proto-oncogenes would decrease cell division rate and no viable embryo would form C. Inherited mutations in proto-oncogenes would increase cell division rate and no viable embryo would form D. Dominant mutations in proto-oncogenes are always inherited1. Use the following scenario to answer questions: Stimulation of G-protein coupled receptors on ovarian cells by certain pituitary hormones promotes the synthesis of estrogen and progesterone using Gαs pathways. Suppose you are studying the release of estrogen from cultured ovarian cells exposed to pituitary hormones. What effect would the following conditions have on estrogen release in response to the pituitary hormones? Genetic deletion (knockout) of Gα along with overexpression of constitutively active PKA would result in (hint: think of epistasis experiments) Answers: a. No change in estrogen release b. Increased release of estrogen c. Decreased release of estrogen d. Can not be determined 2. Imagine that you knocked out the gene encoding the anaphase inhibitor (securin) in a population of fission yeast.

- Which of the following class of chemicals exerts its effects by entering cells, binding intracellular receptors, and affecting gene expression? a. Peptides b. Steroids c. Bioactive amines d. Amino acids Studies have demonstrated biological differences between adult heterosexual and adult homosexual men. Which of the following has been shown to be different between these groups? a. different pattern of cortical neuron branching b. different testosterone levels c. different size of a hypothalamic nucleus d. different estrogen levelsScientists have noticed a disturbing trend in the freshwater ecosystems in North America: a large number of male fish are found to contain female egg cells growing inside their testes. The feminization of male fish is called intersex, and its exact cause is still baffling many scientists. Many studies have shown that intersex can be induced when male fish are exposed to endocrine disruptors. An endocrine disruptor stimulates or inhibits the endocrine system, causing either an increase or decrease in hormone production. However, it is easier to demonstrate the direct cause and effect in a laboratory environment where the fish are only exposed to a single endocrine disruptor. In nature, there are many other variables such as low oxygen levels or warmer water temperatures that could also cause feminization in fish. What can we, as a society or as individuals, do to protect our ecosystems and watersheds from endocrine disruptors?Scientists have noticed a disturbing trend in the freshwater ecosystems in North America: a large number of male fish are found to contain female egg cells growing inside their testes.
