Embryogenesis begins with fertilization where a sperm fuses with an egg to form a zygote. The zygote undergoes rapid cell division through cleavage and develops into a blastocyst which implants in the uterus. The cells then differentiate and organize into the three primary germ layers through gastrulation. The embryo continues to grow and develop organs over the next few weeks. Around 8 weeks, external genitalia form and the embryo becomes a fetus. The fetus continues growing and developing until birth. Lactation begins during pregnancy in preparation for feeding the infant. Prolactin and oxytocin play important roles in milk production and ejection. Breast milk provides ideal nutrition for an infant's growth and development

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

1. Embryogenesis
• It is the development of a fertilized egg that occurs early on
in pregnancy.
• After a sperm fuses with an egg, many changes occur in a
specific order.
• The cells divide, reorganize and form layers of tissue that
will eventually develop into specific organs.
• Embryogenesis happens very early, even before the baby is
a true fetus.
• During embryogenesis, we're just dividing up the cells that
will become specific parts of the fetus later on.
2. Fertilization
• The first step to embryogenesis is fertilization, where
a sperm fuses with an egg, which occurs in
the fallopian tubes of the female reproductive tract.
• Hours after the two cells join together, the cell
begins dividing and moves into the next stage. Below
is a real picture of a sperm fertilizing an egg.

3. Fertilization
The egg is viable for 12 to 24 hours after ovulation
Sperm are viable for 12 to 48 hours after ejaculation
Sperm cells must make their way to the uterine tube for
fertilization to be possible
4. ZYGOTE
1. The sperm and egg join to form a zygote: the first
cell of a new individual.
2. Zygote results of the fusion of DNA from sperm and
egg.
2. Fertilization occurs in the Fallopian Tubes.
3. The zygote begins rapid mitotic cell division
4. Beginning of human development

11. Gastrulation involves a series of cell migrations to positions where
they will form the three primary cell layers.
•Ectoderm forms the outer layer. Ectoderm forms skin, hair,
sweat glands, epithelium, brain and nervous system.
•Endoderm forms the inner layer. The endoderm forms
digestive, respiratory systems, liver, pancreas, all bladder, and
endocrine glands such as thyroid and parathyroid glands.
•Mesoderm forms the middle layer. The mesoderm forms
body muscles, cartilage, bone, blood, reproductive system
organs and kidneys

24. • Lactation happens when the mammary glands in the breasts of
a mother, produce milk for her infant.
• All female mammals have mammary glands to feed their
young. The word “mammary" is derived from the Latin word
“mammae", which is a sound similar to the sound made when
a baby is rooting/searching for the breast.
Lactation
25. Different Stages in Lactation
Stage 1
~
Mammogenesis
• The first stage of lactation is called Mammogenesis, which occurs when the breasts are
developed, right from birth, through to puberty and then the process is completed during
pregnancy.
• This stage of lactation, starts in a woman when she is still in her own mother’s womb, as a
small embryo. At 12 weeks gestation, the breasts have developed nipples, areolae, alveoli
(milk producing cells) and mammary buds.
26. • Sex hormones will then further develop the breasts, until she
is born.
• During puberty, Estrogen and pituitary growth factors will
cause the breasts to grow. New breast tissue is accumulated
with every monthly ovulation cycle, up until the age of 35.
• A woman’s breasts, are only ready to produce milk once she
has become pregnant, this is when the final changes in the
breasts occur to enable her to produce milk.
• The hormones responsible for these changes during pregnancy
include: Prolactin, Placental lactogen, Estrogen, Progesterone,
and the Adrenocorticotropic hormone.
27. Mammogenesis
• The inactive breast is mainly made up of adipose tissue; however, the lactating
breast has a greater proportion of glandular tissue.
• During pregnancy the breasts enlarge; the nipple pigment darkens; the skin
becomes thinner and the veins in the breast become more prominent.
• In mammogenesis the ductal system grows and branches; the amount of connective
tissue and supporting cells increases and fat is laid down in the breast. This is
stimulated by the estrogens, growth hormone, prolactin, insulin and the adrenal
corticoids.
• Progesterone is involved in the last stages of mammogenesis after the ductal system
has grown. It acts with the other hormones to develop the breast lobules and
alveoli, and adapts the alveoli to have secretory properties.
29. Lactogenesis
There are two main stages of lactogenesis:
Lactogenesis I: the ability of the mammary glands to secrete milk from mid-
pregnancy to late pregnancy.
Lactogenesis I starts from mid-pregnancy till 2 days after birth. It involves the
differentiation of alveolar epithelial cells and the stimulation of milk synthesis by
prolactin.
Lactogenesis II: the formation of large amounts of milk after parturition.
Lactogenesis II starts from day 3 postpartum to day 8. It is triggered by the
reduction of progesterone. The breast become full and warm and produce large
amounts of milk.
30. Galactopoiesis
• Galactopoiesis starts around 9 days after birth and finishes at the
beginning of involution. It is the maintenance of milk secretion.
• Controlled by hormones. Breast size starts to diminish between 6 to 9
months after birth. The rate of milk formation normally decreases after
7-9 months; however milk production can continue for years if the child
continues to suckle.
31. Involution
• Involution is the loss of secretory function of milk, due to the accumulation
of inhibiting peptides. It normally starts 40 days after the last breastfeed.
• The epithelial cells no longer require their secretory properties so they are
removed by the process of apoptosis and replaced by adipocytes.
32.
33. The importance of prolactin in
lactation
• Prolactin secretion starts in the 5th week of pregnancy.
• The levels of serum prolactin gradually increases until parturition; afterwards
quantity of prolactin returns to the non-pregnant level.
• It is secreted by the anterior pituitary gland, cells in the breast and the
decidua of the uterus.
• It is transported via the blood to the breasts, where it acts on cells in the
alveoli.
Control of Prolactin:
• Prolactin secretion is inhibited by prolactin-inhibitory factor produced by the
hypothalamus.
• Angiotensin II, vasopressin and gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH)
control the release of prolactin.
34. Functions of prolactin:
Prolactin is involved in mammogenesis
• Prolactin causes the mammary ducts and alveoli to mature; increases breast size and
initiates the final stage of cell differentiation in the alveoli cells.
• The epithelial cells in the alveoli differentiate to become secretory cells; however the
cells need to have come in contact with cortisol and insulin before prolactin can
complete its role.
Prolactin stimulates milk secretion
• Normally, when a new mother nurses her baby, hears her baby or plays with her
baby, nervous signals are sent from the nipples to the hypothalamus.
• This causes a surge in the levels of prolactin released, which lasts for about a hour.
Prolactin makes the mammary glands secrete milk into the alveoli.
• If the surge is absent or blocked as a result of hypothalamus or pituitary gland
damage, or if nursing does not continue; the breasts start to lose their ability to
produce milk in about a week or two.
35. Pituitary hormones
Several pituitary hormones seem to be involved in the formation of
milk, so that it is customary to speak of a lactogenic (“milk-
producing”) complex of hormones.
To some degree, the role of the pituitary
hormones adrenocorticotropin, thyrotropin, and growth hormone in
supporting lactation in women is inferred from the results of studies
done on animals and from clinical observations that are in agreement
with the results of animal studies.
Prolactin, growth hormone, and adrenal hormone seem of greatest
value in restoring lactation after removal of the pituitary, although the
precise response varies from species to species.
36. The importance of oxytocin in
breastfeeding
Ejection ("Let down") process in milk secretion
• Milk is continuously secreted into the alveoli of the breast, however
to get the milk from the alveoli and into the ducts it needs to be
ejected.
• Ejection is a neuronal and hormonal reflex involving oxytocin.

38. Composition and properties of milk
• Milk can be regarded as an emulsion of fat globules in a colloidal
solution of protein together with other substances in true solution.
• Two constituents of milk, the protein casein and milk sugar, or lactose,
are not found elsewhere in the body.
• Maternal breast milk provides vitamins, minerals, protein, and anti-
infectious factors; antibodies that protect the infant’s gastrointestinal
tract are supplied, resulting in a lower rate of enteric infection in breast-
fed than in bottle-fed babies.
• The bonding that is established through breast-feeding is
advantageous to building the parent-child relationship.
