a)
Give a detailed account of the hormonal control of the human menstrual
cycle.
Briefly explain the similarities and differences between oogenesis and
spermatogenesis.
b)
a.) When in the female life cycle are oocytes produced?
b.) Which human hormone(s) are thought to trigger ovulation?
Reproductive physiology (human)
a) At the time of ovulation, the released ovum (egg) has completed both meiosis I and meiosis II.
b) Because the corpus luteum (CL) is rescued from atresia by hCG early in pregnancy, the CL continues to produce progesterone throughout the 9 months of a normal pregnancy.
c) Late in the follicular phase, estrogen participates in a positive feedback loop that leads to a surge in luteinizing hormone and ovulation.
d) Both (a) and (b) are correct and (c) is incorrect
e) Statements (a), (b) and (c) are all correct
