trisomy 21
fetal circulation
-Gas exchange occurs in the placenta
-Blood passes through foramen ovale to left atrium
-Blood bypasses lungs by travelling through the ductus arteriosus into aorta
-Oxygen rich blood enters the embryo via the umbilical vein
blastocyst
Zona pellucida disintegrates and releases conceptus, called ____________, embryo implant in the uterus
Uterine tube
syngamy, fertilization and early embryo development take place here
Luteal (postovulatory) phase
day 15 to day 28, from just after ovulation to onset of menstruation, progesterone level rises

Cremaster muscle
Plays a major role in maintaining scrotal temperature for spermatogenesis
Functions of accessory glands of male reproductive system
nutrition, motility, provides buffer, produce sperm
spermatozoon
Structure releases enzymes to help sperm penetrate corona radiata and zona pellucida

High levels of Urea in urine
indicates increased metabolism of proteins in the body
sequence passage of urine
glomerular capsule →PCT → nephron loop → DCT→ collecting duct → papillary duct → minor calyx → major calyx → renal pelvis → ureter → urinary bladder → urethra
Normal Urine
is mostly acidic, hypertonic as compared to body Fluids, it contains urea and uric acid as nitrogenous wastes and volume is directly proportional to fluid intake
