Daniela Estrada Period. 7 . Concept Map 11: Reproductive System
Major functions of the Reproductive system (male and female)
Male: Develops and maintains organs for production of offspring: gonalds, gametes, sperm, and oocytes.
Female: Produce and maintain sex cells, transports cells to site fertilization, enviornment for developing fetus.
Anatomy of female reproductive structures
Ovary: The structure is solid, ovoid structures. The inner medulla and outer cortex.
Medulla: It is connective tissue, blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and nerves.
Cortex: It contain ovarian follicles covered by cuboidal epithelium.
Uterine tubes: It is near ovaries, it expands to form infundibulum with finger like called fimbriae. It is the normal site for fertilization.
Uterus: It is a hollow organ. It is low one- third of the uterus is the cervix. It has three walls which are endometrium, myometrium, and perimetrium.
Vagina: It is a fibromuscular tube that extends from uterus to the outside. It is partially covered by membrane called hymen.
Disorders associated with the reproductive system (including STI’s)
Gonorrehea: it is a sexually transmitted disease that can infect both men and women. Also a pregnant women can give it to her baby.
Trichomoniasis: it is a very common sexually transmitted disease that is caused by infection with a protozan parasite called trichomonas vaginalis.
Chlamydia: it is a common sexually transmitted disease that can be in both men and women. they way by getting it is by having vaginal, anal, or oral sex with someone who has chamydia.
Genital Herpes: STD caused by herpes simplex viruses type 1 and type 2. the way to transmit it is by having sex with someone who has the disease.
Hepatitis: hepatitis B and C are an infection that can cause serious health problems including liver damage, cirrhosis, liver cancer, and death.
Syphilis: it is sexually transmitted infection that can cause serious health problems. the way to transmit it is by having direct contact with vaginal, anal, or oral sex.
Bacterial Vaginosis: when there is to much bacteria in the vagina.
Hormones of the reproductive system (male and female)
Male hormones
Actions of testosterone:Responsible for male secondary sexual characteristics such as body hair, thickening of the skin, and increased muscular and skeletal growth
Androgens: play role in produce some changes at puberty such as growth of pubic and axillary hair.
Female and Male hormones
LH: testerone
FSH: stimulate seroli cells
Estrogen: it is responsible for female second sexual characteristics, breasts development, sex organ, enlargement, increased apidose tissue deposition.
Progesterone: it causes endometrium to become more vascular.
GnRH: trigger production of gonadotropins from anterior pituitary.
Methods and Classification of contraceptives
Pill: You take it by mouth either if the doctor recommended it for you and it freezes your egg. the effectiveness of the pill is 92%.
Internal condom: it is placed in the vagina. the effectiveness of it is 79%.
External condom: it is placed on the penis. the effectiveness of the condom is 82%.
Male sterilization: it is for not getting a women pregnant but in a male version. The effectiveness is 99.85%.
Female sterilization: It is not getting pregnant. The effectivneness is 99.5%.
Anatomy of male reproductive structures
Penis:
Erection: vasodilation of arteries in erectile and compression of vein leading out of tissue cause penis to swell and elongate.
Testes: It makes sperm. The structure it consists 250 lobules and each loubles hold 1 to 4 coiled seminiferous tublues.
Emmision:
Ejaculation: involve forcing of semen through urethra to outside of body.
Orgasm: culmination of sexual stimulation, a feeling of psychological and physiological release.
Scrotum: It is the pouch.
Events of the female hormonal cycles (be sure to include all categories)
Follicle Maturation: during reproductive years, primordial follicles go into primary follicles. follicle development takes 300 days.
Ovalation: Process of releasing the secondary oocyte and polar body from mature antral follicle and the surface of the ovary.
oogenesis and ovarian cycle: the process of oocyte production. Primary oocyte undergoes meosis, it divides unequally, haploid secondary oocyte and tiny first polar body.
