Gamete transport and Atresia and ovulation

Process that must occur to the sperm prior to fertilization

capacitation

First anatomical barrier sperm must pass through during sperm transport

cervicalos

Location in the oviduct where the sperm reservoir are located

isthmus

Type of flagellar activity a capacitated sperm has

hyperactive

Section of the oviduct responsible for picking up the ovulated oocytes

teasing

Hormone responsible for high levels of mucus production in the female reproductive tract

estradiol

How most of the sperm are revolved/lost during sperm transport

retrograde

Where rooster sperm are stored in the hen

sperm storage tubules

induced

Steroid responsible for simulating large amounts of GnRH

estradiol

Cellular organelle found in the granulosa cells that ruptures due to a prostaglandin

lysosome

progesterone

Time period when the female has exhausted her supply of germ cells

menopause

Hormone that directly causes the LH surge

GnRH

Fate of most follicles and oocytes

atresia
