Penetration of the zona pellucida by spermatozoa:
- Is a consequence of releasing the acrosome enzymes of spermatozoa
- Is also called zona reaction
- Is called a decidua reaction
- Is the next step after dispersing of the follicular cells
- Is the process of dispersing of the follicular cells
- Fusion of the oocyte and sperm cell membranes follows the penetration of the zona pellucida
During the 1st week of embryonic development:
- Blastocyst is created
- Blastomeres increase in number
- Cleavage occurs
- Morula appears
- Primary yolk sac disappears
- Primary yolk sac appears
- The definitive yolk sac appears
- The extraembryonic mesoderm differentiate
- Trophoblast develops
- Inner cell mass (embryoblast) develops
- Zona pellucida is present
- Syncytiotrophoblast and the cytotrophoblast have evolved
- Embryoblast develops into two germ layers
HCG is produced by:
- Amnioblast
- Embryoblast
- Endometrial epithelium
- Exoxoelomic membrane
- Syncytiotrophoblast
- Hypoblast
- Primitive yolk sac
- Amnion Epiblast
- Cytotrophoblast
During the 2nd week of embryonic development:
- Bilaminar germ disc appears
- Blastomeres increase in number and size
- Cleavage occurs
- Embryoblasts differentiate into two germ layers – the epiblast and hypoblast
- Inner cell mass (embryoblast) develops
- Morula appears
- The definitive yolk sac appears
- Trophoblast develops
- Syncytiotrophoblast and the cytotrophoblast have evolved
- Trophoblast differentiates into the syncytiotrophoblast and cytotrophoblast
- Embryoblast develops
Blastocyst is composed of:
- Blastocyst cavity
- Embryoblast
- Endometrial stroma
- Inner cell mass
- Morula
- Uterine gland
- Trophoblast cells
Epiblast:
- Differentiate into the somatic and splanchnic mesoderm
- Gives rise to the secondary yolk sac (definitive yolk sac)
- Is composed of cells adjacent to the amniotic cavity
- Is composed of cells adjacent to the blastocyst cavity
- Together with the hypoblast creates bilaminar germ disc
- Cells separated from epiblast are amniogenic cells
Bilaminar germ disc:
- Appears at the embryonic pole of the blastocyst
- Develops during the 1st week of embryogenesis
- Develops during the 2nd week of embryogenesis
- Is composed of cytotrophoblast and syncytiotrophoblast
- Is composed of hypoblast and epiblast
- Is differentiated from the inner cell mass
Monozygotic twins:
- Are called “fraternal” twins
- Are genetically identical
- Are not genetically identical
- Are result of connection 2 eggs and 2 spermatozoa
- Develop from 1 zygote
- Develop from one zygote, which splits and forms two embryos
- Develop from two zygotes
- Develop from 3 zygotes
- Product of 1 oozyte and two seperate sperms
Dizygotic twins:
- Are called “fraternal” twins
- Are genetically identical
- Are not genetically identical
- Are result of connection 2 eggs and 2 spermatozoa
- Develop from 1 zygote
- Develop from one zygote, which splits and forms two embryos
- Develop from two zygotes
Half identical twins:
- Develop from two zygotes
- Develop from 3 zygotes
- Develop from one zygote, which splits and forms two embryos
- Product of 1 oozyte and two seperate sperms
