Seminiferous Tubules
Can help give the rise of the sperms cells by it's line of epithelial cells
Epidermis
Helps carry out sperm from the Seminiferous tubules into the ductus deferens (Vas Deferens)
Ejaculatory Duct

It is the female hormones and it occurs during puberty and then makes it into meiosis. It is later turned into an egg that is ready to be fertilized. If it is fertilize by a sperm then it is called zygote.
Male
Spermatogenesis
It first starts with sertoli cells that can help nourish, and regulate spermatogenesis
Events of the Female Hormonal Cycle
Menarche is the first function of the female cycle and occur when the female body is fully matured and can began the hormonal cycle of the female hormones
GnRh is the secretion of the hypothalamus and as well can secrete FSH and LH from the anterior pituitary
FSH
FSH can help stimulate the maturation inside the ovary and then into the follicle where it should be consisted with
LH
This helps stimulates the female cells and then to help produce testosterone precursor that can help convey estrogens inside the ovary
Estrogens
Estrogen is the promotion development of the female secondary sexual characteristics when the female body matures enough once it is on the 14 day of the follicle ready by the estrogen then ovulation occurs.
Ovulation
This occurs mid cycle, once it keeps going, the follicular cells then turn into corpus luteum which helps secrets many estrogens and progesterone
