Biology Day 9 Flashcards
external genitalia
penis and scrotum(sac holding testes-helps regulate temp)
gonads
testes; produce sperm and secrete testosterone
internal genitalia
accessory glands and ducts
productions/ejaculation of sperm
storage and maturation-epidymis, vasedeferens, ejaculatory duct, urethra
nutrients enzymes prostaglandins
seminal vesicles
buffers, nutirents, enzymes
prostrate gland
mucus and buffers
bulbourethral glands
female gonads
ovaries, produce ova and secrete estrogen and progestrone
femal exteranl genitalia
vulva(labia majora and miora, clitoris)
internal genetalia female
vagina, uterus, fallopian tubes,
birth canal
vagina
the womb
uterus
layer of gladualr epithelium shed during menstruation
endometrium
thick layer of smooth muscle
myometrium
opening of the uterus
cervix
dialted slightly during ferile days and greatly during childbirth
cervix
carry ova from the ovary to the uterus (via peristalisis)
falloiaian tubues
Male gametes
spermatozoa
male germ cells
spermatogonia
results of male germ cells
4 haploid sperm… start during puberty
female gametes
ova
famale germ cells
oogonia
female results
1 ovum, 2 polar bodies… 500,000 primary oocytes produced during fetal develpment, ovulation from puberty to menopasue
Spermatozoa produced in
seminiferous tubules of the testes
what regulate sperm developmetn
sustentacular cells
secrete testoterone
leydig cells (interstial cells)
spematogonium
diploid 1 makes 4
primary spermatocyte
diploid
secondary spermatocytes
meisis 1 diploid
spermatids
meiosis ii hapoid…
spermatozoa
Epidymis…. haploid
GnRH(male)
stimulates release of LH and FSH from hypothalmus
LH and FSH inhibit(male)
GnRH
from anterior pitutiary
(m) LH stimulates
Leydig cells to produce testoterone
what helps maintina spermatognesis
testosterone
Testosterone inhibits
GnFH and LH
