Concept Map 11: Reproductive System By: Vanessa Martinez
Major functions of the Reproductive system (male and female)
form specialized cells for sexual reproduction call gametes (
sperms: gametes in males. Ova (eggs): gametes in female)
bring gametes from male and female together through sexual intercourse
combine genetic info contained within gametes through fertilization (
zygote: forms when sperm and egg fuse
support developmental of fetus and birth of baby.
Anatomy of male reproductive structures
-testes are sperm producing male gonads that lie within the scrotum.
sperm is delivered through system of ducts
:
epididymis
ductus deferens
ejaculatory ducts
urethra
Accessory sex glands
: seminal glands, prostate and bulbo- urethral glands
-scrotum
-testes
-septa divida
spermatic cord
Semen: milky white mixture of sperm and accessory gland secretions:
spermatogenesis: process of forming male gametes.
occurs during puberty.
anatomy of female reproductive structures:
Ovaries: female gonads that produce female gametes and secretes estrogen and progesterone.
-uterine tube
-uterus
-lumen of vagina
-external genelia
-external os
endometrium
internal:
-uterine
-fondus of uterus
-infundibulum
myometrium
-endometrium
-perimetrium
-vagina
-cervix
-body of uterus
-fimbriae
hormones of the reproductive system:
hormones involved: HPG, GnRH, FSH, LH, sex hormones(testosterone, progesterone, estrogen.
hormones for the female menstrual cycle include:
Follicle-stimulating hormone
Luteinizing hormone
Estrogen
Progesterone
Events of the female hormonal cycle:
begins at puberty. average menstrual cycle take about 28 days and start with the follicular phase, ovulatory phase, and luteal phase.
-follicular is days 1-14 where egg develops
-ovulatory is day 14 where the release of the egg occures
-luteal is days 15-28 where hormone levels decrease if the egg does not implant
Disorders associated with the reproductive system:
Bacterial
-Syphillis
-chlamydia
-gonorrhea
trichomoniasa
Viral infections
-Genital herpes
-HPV/ genital warts
-AIDS/HIV
-PID
-hepatitis
methods and classification of contraceptives:
-Female Sterilization:
-Male Sterilization
-IUD
-Injectables
-Pill
-Diaphragm
Internal Condom
-External Condom
Fertility awareness
withdrawal
spermicides
