oocyte maturation
|
GO_0001556 |
[A developmental process, independent of morphogenetic (shape) change, that is required for an oocyte to attain its fully functional state. Oocyte maturation commences after reinitiation of meiosis commonly starting with germinal vesicle breakdown, and continues up to the second meiotic arrest prior to fertilization.] |
|
oocyte growth
|
GO_0001555 |
[The developmental growth process in which an oocyte irreversibly increases in size over time by accretion and biosynthetic production of matter similar to that already present.] |
|
luteinization
|
GO_0001553 |
[The set of processes resulting in differentiation of theca and granulosa cells into luteal cells and in the formation of a corpus luteum after ovulation.] |
|
ovarian cumulus expansion
|
GO_0001550 |
[Increase in size of the cumulus surrounding the oocyte including change in morphology due to proliferation and dispersion of cumulus cells.] |
|
secondary spermatocyte
|
CL_0000657 |
[One of the two haploid cells into which a primary spermatocyte divides, and which in turn gives origin to spermatids.] |
|
spermatocyte
|
CL_0000017 |
[A male germ cell that develops from spermatogonia. The euploid primary spermatocytes undergo meiosis and give rise to the haploid secondary spermatocytes which in turn give rise to spermatids.] |
|
haploid cell
|
CL_0000413 |
[A cell whose nucleus contains a single haploid genome.] |
|
primary spermatocyte
|
CL_0000656 |
[A diploid cell that has derived from a spermatogonium and can subsequently begin meiosis and divide into two haploid secondary spermatocytes.] |
|
secondary oocyte
|
CL_0000655 |
[A secondary oocyte is an oocyte that has not completed meiosis II.] |
|
peritoneal mesentery
|
UBERON_0007826 |
[Mesentery that is located in the peritoneum.] |
|
reticular membrane of spiral organ
|
UBERON_0007825 |
[A reticular lamina of epithelium that is part of a spiral organ of cochlea.] |
|
UBERON_0007824
|
UBERON_0007824 |
|
|
vomeronasal cartilage
|
UBERON_0007822 |
[The vomeronasal cartilage (or Jacobson's cartilage) is a narrow strip of cartilage, low on the medial wall of the nasal cavity. It lies between the cartilaginous nasal septum and the vomer. The cartilage lies below, but is not connected to, the rudimentary vomeronasal organ of Jacobson[WP].] |
|
lateral nasal cartilage
|
UBERON_0007821 |
[The lateral cartilage (upper lateral cartilage) is situated below the inferior margin of the nasal bone, and is flattened, and triangular in shape.[WP].] |
|
accessory nasal cartilage
|
UBERON_0007820 |
[Small cartilages of the nose connecting the greater alar cartilage and lateral nasal cartilage.] |
|
acrosomal vesicle
|
GO_0001669 |
[A structure in the head of a spermatozoon that contains acid hydrolases, and is concerned with the breakdown of the outer membrane of the ovum during fertilization. It lies just beneath the plasma membrane and is derived from the lysosome.] |
|
G protein-coupled receptor binding
|
GO_0001664 |
[Binding to a G protein-coupled receptor.] |
|
minor alar cartilage
|
UBERON_0007819 |
[The part which forms the lateral wall is curved to correspond with the ala of the nose; it is oval and flattened, narrow behind, where it is connected with the frontal process of the maxilla by a tough fibrous membrane, in which are found three or four small cartilaginous plates, the lesser alar cartilages.] |
|
major alar cartilage
|
UBERON_0007818 |
[The greater alar cartilage (lower lateral cartilage) is a thin, flexible plate, situated immediately below the preceding, and bent upon itself in such a manner as to form the medial wall and lateral wall of the naris of its own side. The portion which forms the medial wall (crus mediale) is loosely connected with the corresponding portion of the opposite cartilage, the two forming, together with the thickened integument and subjacent tissue, the septum mobile nasi. The part which forms the lateral wall (crus laterale) is curved to correspond with the ala of the nose; it is oval and flattened, narrow behind, where it is connected with the frontal process of the maxilla by a tough fibrous membrane, in which are found three or four small cartilaginous plates, the lesser alar cartilages (cartilagines alares minores; sesamoid cartilages). Above, it is connected by fibrous tissue to the lateral cartilage and front part of the cartilage of the septum; below, it falls short of the margin of the naris, the ala being completed by fatty and fibrous tissue covered by skin. In front, the greater alar cartilages are separated by a notch which corresponds with the apex of the nose.] |
|
contractile cell
|
CL_0000183 |
[A cell whose primary function is to shorten.] |
