SPERMATOZOON
The spermatozoon was discovered by the
student Gam in 1677 and described by Antony
Leeuwenhoek
The ejaculate contains about 200-500 million
spermatozoa
The speed of movement of spermatozoa is 2-3
mm at one o'clock
OVUM AND SPERM
1 Sperm
2 Ovum
FERTILIZATION PHASES
Activation - the meeting of a
homologous sperm with an egg and
attaching to its surface
Fusion of the nuclei of two cells
INTRAUTERINE DEVELOPMENT OF THE
ORGANISM
PERIODS OF FETAL DEVELOPMENT DURING
PREGNANCY
Pre-implantation (from the moment of fertilization of the egg by the sperm until
the introduction of the fertilized egg into the mucosa of the uterine wall)
Implantation (attachment of a fertilized egg to the wall of the uterus)
Organogenesis and placentation (the period of formation of all organs and
tissues of the fetus, as well as the placenta)
Fetal - a period of growth and development of formed organs and tissues
IN THE PROCESS OF EMBRYOGENESIS THE
FOLLOWING MAIN STAGES CAN BE DISTINGUISHED
Fertilization
Cleavage (7-8 days)
Gastrulation (from 7-8 to 15 days)
Histogenesis, organogenesis,
systemogenesis
CLEAVAGE
The period of crushing begins from the moment of the first division of the zygote into two
daughter cells and lasts until the formation of a single-layer multicellular embryo - the blastula
Cells formed during cleavage are called blastomeres. Initially, an internal cell mass is formed -
a complex of 8-12 blastomeres, resembling a raspberry (so-called morula) in shape
Cleavage, which began even in the process of moving the developing embryo through the
fallopian tube, accelerates sharply after the morula enters the uterus
CLEAVAGE
At the same time, on the 7th day, the process of gastrulation begins (the formation
of germ layers), as well as the formation of germ layers, providing the necessary
conditions for development
GASTRULATION
Gastrulation is followed by the differentiation of the germ layers and the processes
of organogenesis (the chord is laid - the forerunner of the spine; the first blood
vessels appear)
21st day - the heart has already formed and began to beat! The brain and spinal
cord are formed. Sexual gonads are formed
On the 4th week, eye sockets are formed, the
rudiments of arms and legs appear. The embryo Embryo at 4 weeks
resembles a tiny pinna and is surrounded by a small
amount of amniotic fluid
The laying and development of internal organs
begins: intestines, liver, kidneys, urinary tract.
Improved, developing the heart and brain. Its growth
by the end of the first month is 4 mm
On the 8th week, the most intensive process of
development of external and internal organs,
especially the genitals Embryo at 8 weeks
It starts from the moment of fertilization and continues until the moment the
embryo attaches to the wall of the uterus - 7-8 days after fertilization)
The embryo, at this stage, is relatively resistant to the action of damaging
agents
Unfavorable factors have an embryotoxic effect, leading to the death of the
embryo
The blastomeres of the embryo of the pre-implantation period are characterized
by pluripotency and a high ability to regenerate, therefore, if individual
blastomeres are damaged, further embryonic development is not disturbed
If many blastomeres are damaged, then, as a rule, the embryo dies
SECOND CRITICAL PERIOD
Those organs and systems that were at that time in the process of laying and
increased metabolism are affected
For the defeat of the embryo during this period, the occurrence of deformities
(teratogenic effect) is characteristic
The most sensitive to adverse factors are the central nervous system, organs of
vision, endocrine glands and sex glands, therefore, anomalies of these organs
are more common than others
PLACENTATION PERIOD
Damaging factors can disrupt the normal development of the allantois and the
associated vascularization of the chorion
Violation of chorion vascularization underlies primary placental insufficiency,
with the progression of which intrauterine fetal death may occur
STAGES OF VIOLATION OF UTEROPLACENTAL
CIRCULATION
2) Syndesmochorial – a more perfect type of placentation, the villi pass into the
connective tissue
TYPES OF PLACENTATION
Gametopathies
Blastopathies
Embryopathies
Fetopathy
GAMETOPATHIES
Fetopathies - damage to the fetus that occurs under the influence of exogenous
influences in the fetal period - from the beginning of the 9th week of intrauterine
development to childbirth
