25.          Receptors for sperm binding in mammals are present on zona pellucida

26.         * At the end of gestation, the completely developed foetus is expelled out. This process is called parturition.

               * Parturition is controlled by a complex neuroendocrine mechanism.

               * Estrogen and progesterone ratio increases as estrogen levels rise significantly.

               * Prostaglandins, which stimulate uterine contractions are also produced that act on myometrium.

               * Oxytocin, the main hormone, also called as birth hormone is released by maternal pituitary, which brings about strong uterine contractions.
