The process where the uterine walls come close together, aiding the blastocyst in finding an attachment point.

The critical blastocyst stage where its inner cell mass aligns with the uterine lining, essential for proper development.

The blastocyst's process of burrowing into the uterine stroma (tissue) to access nutrients.

Inner cell mass layer close to the blastocoel, developing into extraembryonic endoderm.

Inner cell mass layer further from the blastocoel, forming the embryo proper.

Combined hypoblast and epiblast layers, giving rise to yolk sac, amnion, and chorion.

Process forming the three primary germ layers (ectoderm, endoderm, mesoderm).

Germ layer forming nervous tissue, epidermis, sense organs, teeth enamel, and parts of mouth/anus.

Germ layer lining respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive tracts, plus parts of liver, gallbladder, pancreas, and glands.

Germ layer with diverse functions, including bone, muscle, connective tissues, and components of the circulatory system.

Chimeric organ for material exchange between mother and fetus; crucial for pregnancy.

Fertilized egg implants outside the uterus.

Placenta implants low in uterus, covering cervix.

Hormone detected in pregnancy tests, produced by the chorion.

Reflexogenic arousal is triggered by physical stimulation (e.g., touching), while psychogenic arousal is driven by mental cues like thoughts or fantasies.

1. Excitement: erection occurs, 2. Plateau: further arousal, 3. Orgasm: climax, 4. Resolution: return to resting state, refractory period.

It's a coagulant that helps hold sperm against the vaginal wall after ejaculation.

The final step of sperm maturation before fertilization, allowing the sperm to penetrate the egg.

A protective layer surrounding the egg, ensuring only one sperm enters.

Process where sperm releases enzymes to break through the zona pellucida.

The union of the male and female pronuclei, forming a single diploid nucleus in the fertilized egg.

Changes in the egg's surface after fertilization, preventing polyspermy (multiple sperm entry).

The combined layers of the hypoblast and epiblast, which will give rise to key structures like the yolk sac, amnion, and chorion.

It forms the three primary germ layers (ectoderm, mesoderm, endoderm), which will later give rise to different tissues and organs.

A specialized organ that provides nutrients and oxygen to the developing fetus and removes waste products.

When the fertilized egg implants outside the uterus, usually in the fallopian tube.

The placenta implants low in the uterus, covering or blocking the cervix.

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin is a hormone produced during pregnancy, detectable in urine tests.
