Reproductive System
Anatomy of Male Reproductive System
Testes- primary sex organ
Ductus system- delivery of male gamete
Epididymis- found on superior part of the testis; mature and stores sperm cells
Vas Deferens- carries sperm from epididymis to ejaculatory duct
Urethra- carries both sperm & urine; sperm enters from ejaculatory duct
Seminal Vesicle- produces a thick, akaline, yellowish secretion
Prostate Gland- secretes a milky fluid that helps activate sperm
Bulbourethral Gland- secretes an alkaline mucus in response to sexual stimulation, & lubricates penis for penetration just before ejaculation
Scrotum- divided sac of skin outside the abdomen that holds the testes
Penis- tubular organ through which distal portion of urethra passes; conducts urine to exterior
Anatomy of Female Reproductive System
Ovaries- primary sex organ; outer cortex houses developing female gamete, the oocyte, within follicles
Oogenesis- process of producing ova or egg cells
Uterine (Fallopian) Tube- receive the ovulated oocyte; provide site for fertalization
Uterus- receive, retain, & nourish fertilized eggs
Mons Pubis- fatty pad overly the pubic area
Vagina- serves as birth canal; receives penis during sexual intercourse
Labia- skin folds around the vaginal opening
Vestibule- contains the opening to urethra
Clitoris- contains erectile tissue
Mammary Glands- responsible for milk production
Major Functions- Male/Female
M:produce & disseminate large quantity of male gamete
F:production of female gamete (ovum or egg) & preparation for support of developing embryo during pregnancy
