Each cell expresses, or turns on, only a fraction of its genes. The rest of the genes are repressed, or turned off.
The turned on genes are then first transcribed into messenger RNA by the process of Transcription.
Then the mRNA is Translated into protein by the process called Translation.
This is how the specific genes are expressed.
Answer:
Granulosa cells
Explanation:
Foliculogenesis is a dynamic and complex process through which the follicle goes through many stages of development in a short period (approximately 60 days in humans and some chimpanzees).
The stages classification is based on morphological changes such as follicular size or diameter, the number of follicular cell layers, etcetera. These classifications might vary among authors but could be denominated as:
- De Graaf follicles (This is the one shown in the image)
Through each stage, there are certain modifications in the oocyte, follicular cells, and connective tissue. As the oocyte grows, the follicular cells might reach a size twice or three times bigger than the ones of the primordial follicles. Their shape also changes and they adopt an aspect of stratified epithelium. Their cytoplasm gets a granulous aspect, after what these cells receive the name of <u><em>granulous cells</em></u>. The De Graaf follicle characterizes for having a space named follicular antro that displaces the oocyte to one of the sides.
The oocyte at this point gets surrounded by <u>zona pellucida</u> and <u>corona radiata </u>.
The follicular antro (The highlighted structure) separates the oocyte from the externally located <u>granulosa cells</u> or follicular cells.
Answer: The correct answer is- B) Ecosystem.
Ecosystem can be described as a group of living organisms present in a particular area that are interacting with each other as well as the non living components of that environment.
In other words, it is the interaction between biotic ( living such as plants and animals) and abiotic ( non living such as temperature, air, water) components of an environment.
Example- Pond ecosystem, lake ecosystem.
Answer:
Estrogen and progesterone are both involved in preparing the endometrium for embryo implantation. Estrogen helps to ensure conception by increasing the amount of secretory glands in the uterus. Estrogen also increases blood supply to the endometrium.
Progesterone is crucial for embryo implantation and maintenance of pregnancy. Progesterone also enlarges secretory glands that produce carbohydrates, proteins and mucin that are required for embryo nourishment before implantation. Progesterone stabilizes endometrial muscles to prevent them from contracting during pregnancy.
Explanation:
- Estrogen and progesterone are steroid hormones of the reproductive system. Estrogen helps in conception whereas progesterone maintains pregnancy.
- Estrogen is secreted during the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle that promotes the growth and maturation of follicles in the ovary.
- Estrogen also induces oestrous behavior in females.
- Secreted by the corpus luteum, progesterone is also a steroid hormone, responsible for implantation of the embryo in the uterus.
Single seismograph can register the occurrence of an earthquake. Analysis of the waves can yield the distance between the sensor and the epicenter. This describes a circle with the seismograph at the center. ... Adding data from a third station pinpoints the epicenter as the only place where all three circles intersect
