Jimena Serrano P2 Lymphatic/Immune System
Major functions of the Reproductive system (male and female)
Female: produce gamete (eggs or ova)
fertilized eggs called the zygotes develop into mature fetuses and become ready.
transport into female reproductive system for fertilization.
male: produce androgen like testosterone that maintain male reproductive function and to promote spermatogensis.
Anatomy of male reproductive structures
penis external male sex organ that additionally serves as the urinary duct
vas deferens The vas deferens is a long, muscular tube that travels from the epididymis into the pelvic cavity, just behind the urinary bladder.
seminal vesicles pair of convoluted tubular accessory glands that lie behind the urinary bladder of male mammals. They secrete fluid that partly composes the semen
ejaculatory duct Each ejaculatory duct is formed by the union of the vas deferens with the duct of the seminal vesicle. They pass through the prostate, and open into the urethra above the seminal colliculus
prostate produces a large portion of the fluid that makes up semen. This fluid is milky white in color and contains enzymes, proteins
urethra urethra stretches from the bladder to the tip of the glans penis, serving as a passage for urine and semen.
bulbourethral gland are pea-sized structures on the sides of your urethra, just below your prostate
scrotum a part of the external male genitalia located at the base of the penis. It consists of a sac of skin containing the external spermatic fascia, testicles, epididymides, and vasa deferentia.
epididymis a long, coiled tube that rests on the back of each testicl
testicle primary male reproductive organ and are responsible for testosterone and sperm production
Anatomy of female reproductive structures
vulva These skin folds are called the labia majora and labia minora. Both labia majora and labia minora are part of the vulva.
ovaries eleased ova and carry them into the infundibulum for transport to the uterus.
clitoris is a sex organ in females that functions as a sensory organ.
uterus organ in the reproductive system of most female mammals, including humans, that accommodates the embryonic and fetal development of one or more embryos until birth.
urethra s an extension of a tube from the bladder to the outside of the body. The purpose of the urethra is for the excretion of urine
mons pubis a tissue mound made up of fat located directly anterior to the pubic bones
The bulbs of vestibule are a pair of subcutaneous erectile tissues analogous to the penile bulb and corpus spongiosum in males.
Hymen a thin piece of mucosal tissue that surrounds or partially covers the vaginal opening.
Hormones of the reproductive system (male and female)
Sex hormones include the androgens, estrogens, and progestogens
Testosterone is the primary male sex hormone and androgen in males.
. FSH is synthesized and secreted by the gonadotropic cells of the anterior pituitary gland and regulates the development, growth, pubertal maturation, and reproductive processes of the body
Estradiol, also spelled oestradiol, is an estrogen steroid hormone and the major female sex hormone.
The production of LH is regulated by gonadotropin-releasing hormone from the hypothalamus.
Events of the female hormonal cycles (be sure to include all categories)
menstruation the follicar phase, ovulation, luteal phase
luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, and the female sex hormones estrogen and progesterone.
