Q

What is optimum temperature for sperm cells

A

3 degrees lower temperature than core body temperature

17
Q

FSH: What is it? What does it do?

A

A follicle-stimulating hormone test measures the amount of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in a blood sample. FSH is produced by the pituitary gland. In women, FSH helps control the menstrual cycle and the production of eggs by the ovaries In men, FSH helps control the production of sperm

18
Q

LH:

A

Luteinizing hormone Trigger ovulation

19
Q

Estrogen: What is it? What does it do?

A

steroid hormones that promote the development and maintenance of female characteristics of the body

20
Q

Progesterone: What is it?

A

Steroid Hormone stimulates the uterus to prepare for pregnancy

21
Q

hCG: What is it? Where is it first produced

A

maintains the corpus luteum , EBRYONIC CELLS

22
Q

What is the corpus luteum

A

After ovulation follicular & thecal cells secrete estrogen & progesterone & relaxin which makes the uterus not contract & relaxes ligaments

23
Q

What are gonads?

A

OVARY or TESTES

24
Q

What do gonads produce?

A

GAMEATES, estrogen, progesterone, relaxin, testosterone

25
Q

When does the zygote begin growth and division? Where does this FIRST take place?

A

1, Fallopian tube

26
Q

Give the anatomical location of the kidneys in relation to the stomach and diaphragm

A

see

27
Q

Where does the glomerular capillary receive blood?

A

afferent arteriole of the renal circulation

28
Q

List all of the functions of the kidneys

A 
Removing wastes and water from the blood

A

efferent arteriole

33
Q

What tubes connect the kidneys to the bladder?

A
