A woman's uterus is a pear-shaped organ located in the pelvis. It is made up of three layers: the outer layer called the perimetrium, the middle layer called the myometrium, and the inner layer called the endometrium. The uterus is where a fertilized egg implants and grows during pregnancy.

Fallopian tubes are connected to?

The fallopian tubes are connected to the uterus on one end and to the ovaries on the other end. They serve as the passageway for the egg to travel from the ovary to the uterus, where fertilization can occur.


What does the laminin cell look like?

Laminin is a protein that helps cells stick together. It has a cross-like shape and is an important component of the extracellular matrix that surrounds cells. Its structure helps provide support and structure to tissues in the body.


What does a protein look like and how can its structure be described?

A protein is a complex molecule made up of chains of amino acids. Its structure can be described in terms of its primary structure (sequence of amino acids), secondary structure (folding patterns like alpha helices and beta sheets), tertiary structure (overall 3D shape), and quaternary structure (arrangement of multiple protein subunits). Proteins can have diverse shapes and functions based on their unique structures.


If a human uterus is injected with fertilized dog eggs will the puppies develop?

No, it is not biologically possible for puppies to develop in a human uterus. The genetic makeup and environment needed for a fertilized dog egg to develop into a puppy are not compatible with the human reproductive system.


How does a sperm get from the oviduct to the uterus?

You have the anatomy backwards. Sperm enters the body in the vagina, then travels through the cervix to the uterus and (if they make it that far) to the oviduct (or fallopian tubes). So sperm would not travel FROM the oviduct TO the uterus because that would mean the sperm would need to start their journey at the wrong end of the anatomy. Sperm travel by means of a whip-like tail called a flagellum. Under a microscope, sperm cells look like little tadpoles wiggling their flagellum to propel themselves forward. So, basically, they swim in the seminal and vaginal fluids.
