Microscopic Photos of Reproductive System Tissue Slides 4 years, 4 months ago The uterus is separated into layers, each with its own structural and functional properties. The mucosal layer, or endometrium, the muscularis layer, or myometrium, and the serosal layer, or perimetrium are the most basic classifications of these layers. The endometrium is composed of two layers: the stratum functionalis and the stratum basalis.-
During the menstrual cycle, the stratum functionalis grows and vascularizes before being sloughed off during menstruation, whilst the stratum basalis remains essentially stable. The myometrium permits the uterine cavity to expand and contract and is sensitive to the hormone oxytocin. -
