Reproductive system (Male Sex Hormones (Female Sex Hormones (Gonadotropin…

- - - - stimulates the development and maturation of primary follicle into secondary follicle
    - - released by hypothalamus in the brain to stimulate anterior pituitary gland to release LH and FSH(same as males)
      - . During puberty
    - - primary female sex hormone released by follicle(in ovary)
      - . Stimulates growth of uterus, vaginal, necessary for ovum maturation
    - - decrease release of FSH by anterior pituitary gland
    - - triggers suppression of the hypothalamus from releasing GnRH
      - . Stimulates the development and growth of the lining of the development and growth of the lining of the uterine wall to get ready for implantation
    - - spike of hormone will trigger ovulation of the most mature follicle(only one)
      - . Both LH and FSH- released by anterior pituitary gland in the brain
- - - - carries sperm from the epididymis to the ejaculatory duct
    - - lubricates penis for penetration just before ejaculation
    - - carries both sperm and urine
    - - helps activate sperm
    - - mature and store sperm cells(at least 20 days)
    - - contains fructose(sugar),vitamin C and other substance that nourish and activate the sperm
    - - tubular organ through which distal portion urethra passes
    - - Tunica albuginea

      - regulates temperature for the testes
    - - attaches to the body wall
    - - free, movable portion of penis, contains three cylindrical columns of erectile tissue
- - - - occurs in the ovaries leading to the maturation and ovulation of the mature oocyte
      - . Made up of the menstrual phase, proliferative phase(before ovulation), and secretory phase(after ovulation)
    - - occurs in the ovaries leading to the maturation and ovulation of the mature oocyte
      - . Made up of follicular phase(before ovulation and luteal phase(after ovulation)
