    Fertilization & Development

    The document summarizes the process of fertilization and early human development. It describes how sperm transfer occurs during sexual intercourse and the multiple phases of orgasm. It explains that fertilization happens when sperm penetrates an oocyte in the uterine tube, causing the oocyte to complete meiosis II and the nuclei to fuse. Early development involves cleavage in the uterine tube and implantation in the uterus around 6-7 days after fertilization, where the trophoblast forms the placenta and the inner cell mass forms the embryo.

    Coitus & Sperm Transfer

    • 2-3 phases
    – Erection/engorgement: Parasympathetic reflex
    – Plateau
    – Orgasm: Sympathetic reflex
    • Heart rate, contractility increase (pulse & BP)
    • Intense pleasure
    • Ejaculation by male

    19 Nov. 2008 Fertilization.ppt 2


    Fertilization
    • Contact of sperm &
    secondary oocyte
    occurs in uterine tube
