What do all vertebrates minus lamprey have?
male and female ducts with males having archinephric/wollfian and female having paramesonephric/muellerian
What do mammals, snakes, alligators and birds have?
metanephric kidney and duct and amniotic egg: amnion, chorion and allantois
What do mammals have?
numerous nephrons, long loops of henle.
There: vagina, microlecithal egg, chorioallantoic placenta
eutherian: long gestation
What do birds have?
numerous nephrons and long loops of henle developed separate form mammals.
What si the function of the rectal gland? What animals have this?
shark. helps chrondicthyes regulate osmotic pressure by removing excess bivalent salts from blood stream and secreting salts into intestine as part of waste to be excreted.
What is the function of the female ovary? What animals have this?
shark and skate, and cat. alter hormone production and appearance to become corpus lute with follicle cell sin ovary nurturing egg before ovulation and secrete estrogen. after ovulation secrete estrogen and progesterone maintaingint the uterine lining
What is the function of the female infundibulum/ostium? What animals have this?
infundibulum- shark and skate and cat. opening or hole into the muellarian duct with infundibulum (enlarged end of oviduct or fallopian tube) forming in reproductive active female sharks when falciform ligament enlarges with single osmium leads into either oviduct
What is the function of the female oviduct? What animals have this?
shark and skate and cat. fertilization happens here
What is the function of the female uteri,? What animals have this?
shark and skate- paired and cat. present if fertilized eggs are stored temporarily or developing embryos retained in some form of viviparity.
What is the function of the female cloaca?? What animals have this?
shark and skate
What is the function of the female cervix? What animals have this?
cat. acts as a tight sphincter to prevent loss of fetuses form uterus during pregnancy and produces a thick mucous that acts as a barrier to infections entering body from vagina.
What is the function of the female vagina? What animals have this?
cat
What is the function of the female urogenital sinus? What animals have this?
cat
What is the function of the male testes? What animals are they found in?
shark, necturus, and cat
What is the function of the male epididymus? What animals are they found in?
shark, necturus, and cat. (epididymis on top storing sperm and sperm undergoes maturation and learns to swim)
What is the function of the male vas deferens? What animals are they found in?
shark, necturus, and cat. ductus vas defrenes also store sperm and highly muscular homologous and analogous to structures in mammals.
What is the function of the male sperm sac? What animals are they found in?
shark alkaline gland used for sperm storage but secretes highly alkaline fluids that may protect sperm
What is the function of the male Leydig’s gland? What animals are they found in?
shark. produce nutritive fluids to feed or protect sperm forming anterior kidney tissue. produces milky secretions that help transport sperm.
What is the function of the male siphon sac? What animals are they found in?
shark. built into clasper, ejects seawater with sperm and adds an energy rich secretion into that seminal fluid.
What is the function of the male claspers? What animals are they found in?
shark. transfer sperm into female reproductive tract
What is the function of the male urogenital papillae? What animals are they found in?
shark enclosed in the cloaca
What is the function of the male archiephric duct? What animals are they found in?
necturus. archinephric duct/wolffian duct connects to testes used to transport sperm with wolffian duct dividing into several regions .
What is the function of the male mesonephric duct? What animals are they found in?
necturus
What is the function of the male cloacal gland? What animals are they found in?
necturus
What is the function of the male scrotum? What animals are they found in?
cat. move testes into scrotal sac to allow sperm to develop at cooler temperatures
What is the function of the male urethra? What animals are they found in?
cat
What is the function of the male prostate? What animals are they found in?
cat. surrounds urethra and is located posterior to the urinary bladder ejecting a milky, slightly alkaline fluid into the urethra contributing to seminal fluid
What is the function of the male bulbourethral glands? What animals are they found in?
cat. smaller and primarily produces mucous prior to ejactualtion and mucous that empties into the urethra along and contributes to the seminal fluid. sitting at base of penis in cats and produce mucous aids in lubricating during intercourse
What is the function of the male penis? What animals are they found in?
cat. copulatory organ to transfer sperm into female reproductive tract
