What is the path if sperm?

Testes epididymis vas deferens ejaculary duct urthra

What are the functions of TESTES?

Produce SPERM+ sex hormones: TESTOSTERONE

What is function of EPIDIDYMIS?

Maturation + some storage of Sperm

What is function of VAS DEFERENS; ductus deferens?

Conduct + store sperm

What is function of SEMINAL VESICLE?

Contribute FLUID to SEMEN

What is function of PROSTATE GLAND?

FLUID to SEMEN

What is function of COWPERS GLAND/ BULBOUREHRAL gland?

FLUID to semen

What is function of PENIS?

Male organ of sexual intercourse

WHAT IS THE ORGAN OF COPULATION?

PENIS

What is function of URETHRA?

Conducts sperm + passage of pee

What structures contribute to seminal fluid?

**Seminal vesicle, **prostate gland, bulbourethral gland?

Where does the sperm mature?

EPIDIDYMIS

WHAT ARE THE MALE GONADS? WHAT SI THE MALE GAMETE

TESTES SPERM

Where can the SPERM BE STORED?

EPIDIDYMIS+ VAS DEFERENS

Where are the testes HOUSED? What does it contain?

SCROTAL SACS, which tontains SEMINIFEROUS TUBULES

What does the sperm produce?

SPERM+ INTERSTITIAL CELLS

What does interstitial cells secrete?

TESTOSTERONE

What are the functions of testerone?

1)Spermatogenesis: prod.+ development of sperm 2)Development of 2nday male sexual characteristics: deepen voice, facial+pubic hair growth, muscle+skeletal development 3)Maturation of sex organs: TESTES+penis

WHAT IS THE PROCESS OF SPERM?

4) DEX DRIVE + AGGRESSIVENESS FSH causes spermatogenic cells in testes to take testosterone which causes these cells to produce sperm Spermatogonium(from nucleus of sertoli cell) primary spermatocyte 2ndary spermatocyte spermatidsperm cells

What are the 2 gonadotropic hormones that stimulate sperm prod. + secretion of testosterone

LH: LUTEINIZING HORMONE + FSH: FOLLICLE-STIMULATING HORMONE

How much sperm is in semen? How much sperm is released during ejaculation? How much sperm reaches the egg?

400 mill 100 mill 100

What are the erectile tissues called? What happens when the penis gets erect?

COPRUS SPONGIOSUM BODIES The erectile functions get gorged with blood=erection

What are 3prts of sperm?

FSH CYCLE: (involves 4 hormones: GnRH, FSH, LH/ ICSH, inhibin)

HEAD; which contains ACROSOME CAP @ tip(has enzymes to penetrate egg) MIDDLE PIECE: has many MITCHONDRIA= energy for sperm movement TAIL HYPOTHALMUS controls testes by secreting GnRH 1) GnRH promotes FSH from anterior pituitary 2)FSH stimulates SERTOLI cells to take up more TESTOSTERONE which promotes sperm production 3)increased amnt of sperm produces increases lvl of inhibin 4)inhibin is detected by anterior pituitary& hypothalamus, once lvls are too HIGH they STOP production of GnRH+ FSH

ISCH CYCLE:

GnRH promotes ICSH production by anterior pituitary 1) ICSH promotes prod. of TESTOSTERONE by interstitial cell 2) High lvls of testosterone is detected by hypthal. Which inhibits prod. of GnRH 3) HYPOTHAL. Stops prod. of GnRH& ISCH

What does GnRH stand for and whats its function

-GONADOTROPIC-RELEASING hormone -Produced in hypothal. -Triggers anterior pituitary to prod. FSH + ICSH FOLLICLE-STIMULATING HORMONE - promotes sperm production in SEMINIFEROUSTUBULES : enters sertoli cells & makes them take up testosterone INTERSTITIAL CELL-STIMULATING hormone/ LEUTINIZING hormone - Controls prod. of testosterone

What does FSH stand for and whats its function

What does ICSH/LH(in female) stand for and whats its function

What does INHIBIN do?

Hormone prod. by sertoli cells in semin.tubules - used to keep track of sperm lvls

What is IMPOTENCY

FAILURE TO ERECT

WHAT IS THE FEMALE GONAD? WHAT IS THE FEMALE GAMETE?

OVARIES OVUM;EGG

What is function of OVARIES?

Prod. EGG(ovum) + SEX HORMONES( estrogen + progesterone)

What is function of OVIDUCTS?

CONDUCTS EGGUTERUS SITE OF FERTILIZATION

What is the function of UTERUS?

Houses developing fetus(womb)

What is the function of CERVIX?

Contains opening to uterus

What is the function of VAGINA?

Receives penis during sexual intercourse Is the BIRTH CANAL Is the EXIT for menstrual flow

What is the function of CLITORIS?

Is the ERECTILE organ(stimulation); helps w/ orgasm

What is OVULATION? What day does it OCCUR?

Releasement of 2ndary OOCYTE(EGG); bursts from ovary

WHAT DO YOU NEED FOR BREAST DEVELOPMENT?

PROGESTERONE+ESTROGEN

WHAT ARE THE SEX HORMONES ?

PROGESTERONE+ESTROGEN

WHAT HAPPENS WEN UR PREGO?

The embryo develops as it travels from the oviduct uterus

Where does fertilization occur? Where does it develop?

OVIDUCTS UTERUS

Following ovulation what does the follicle develop into?

CORPUS LUTEUM(only lasts 2 week)

Ovarian cycle:

Primary follicle contains: Primary oocyte(prod. Estrogen) enlarge+ completes meiosis 1 2ndary follicle: contains 2ndary oocyte (prod.estro.+proest.) vesicular (Graafian) follicle develops ovulation:2ndary oocyte is released develops into corpus luteum if no fertilization then degenerates+ menstrual cycle 28 days Day 1-5

How long is ovarian/uterine cycle? When does menstruation occur?

What is an occyte?

Immature egg

What causes development of follicle

FSH

What is menstruation/menses

shedding of the endometrium - the uterine lining

What is the function of the corpus luteum?

Releases progesterone+estrogen

When is a woman actually preggo?

When sperm penetrates the egg and implants itself in the lining of the uterus
