SCRIBE!!

Hey guys!! Sooooo, today we started off class going over some homework. We went over and reviewed the menstrual cycle. Something that helped me remember how it worked was the little chart thing Mrs. Stein wrote on the board that kinda went like this. HYPOTHALAMUS -> PITUITARY GLAND -> FSH & LH -> OVARY -> ESTROGEN & PROGESTERONE. ( LH and progesterone are linked. Whereas FSH and estrogen are linked.) Then the second half of class we took some notes on the idea of contraception, fertilization and implantation. Pretty much the main idea of contraception is to keep it safe when you have sex. But the safest plan is to practice abstinence so there is no possible way to have a baby. Then fertilization and implantation was pretty much just that the fertilization occurs in the oviduct and that there are some cell divisions that we should know about like, the embryo, the morula, and the blastocyst. So yeah, that what went down. Then we went home. :)
