33
bile function

34
pancreas function

35
cells of the pancreas responsible for insulin and glucagon
pancreatic islets

38
region of the abdomen that the spleen is found
left hypochondriac region
39
spleen function
immune function
40
passage through the small intenstine
duodenum -> jejunum -> ileum
41
duodenum function
Using bile and pancreatic enzymes, neutralizes chyme, digests macromolecules, begins nutrient absorption
42
jejunum function
Main site of absorption for nutrients
43
jejunum quadrant
left upper quadrant
44
ileum quadrant
right lower quadrant
45
ileocecal junction
connection between the small and large intestine
46
passage of the large intestine
cecum -> ascending colon -> transverse colon -> descending colon -> sigmoid colon -> rectum -> anus
47
organs of the urinary system
the kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder, and urethra
48
kidney function
filter large amounts of blood from the renal arteries and produce urine as waste
49
ureter function
transmit urine to the urinary bladder
50
urethra function
secretion of urine from the urinary bladder
51
pathway of urine
kidneys -> ureter -> urinary bladder -> urethra
52
The kidneys are outside of the _____cavity, but inside the _____ cavity.
peritoneal, abdominal
53
perirenal fat
layer of adipose tissue that protects the kidneys
54
renal capsule
outer covering of connective tissue around kidneys
55
outer portion of kidney
renal cortex
56
inner region of kidney
renal medulla
57
segments of the renal medulla
renal pyramids
58
extensions of the cortex that seperates the renal pyramids
renal columns
59
functional unit of kidney
nephron
60
passage of urine through kidney
renal pyramids -> minor calyces (one per pyramid) -> major calyces -> renal pelvis -> ureter
61
detrusor muscle
The smooth muscle of the urinary bladder contracts as the bladder expands
62
internal urethral sphincter
relaxes as the urinary bladder contracts (involuntary)
63
external urethral sphincter
a voluntary skeletal muscle ring around the urethra that can contract to prevent urination
64
urethra male vs female
short in females | extends through the prostate in males
65
3 divisons of urethra in males
Prostatic urethra, Membranous urethra, Penile urethra
66
Prostatic urethra
carries urine from the bladder and passes through the prostate gland
67
Membranous urethra
passes through the external urethral sphincter
68
Membranous urethra
passes through the external urethral sphincter
69
Penile urethra
passes through the penis to carry urine to the exterior
70
pelvic cavity
parts of the urinary system and the reproductive system
71
pelvic inlet
seperation between abdominal and pelvic cavities
72
cavities of the internal reproductive structures
within the pelvic cavity and outside of the peritoneal cavity
73
testes
the organs of the male reproductive system responsible for sperm testosterone production
74
scrotum
scrotal cavity with testes, spermatic cord, skeletal muscle, blood vessels
75
spermatic cord
conduit between the scrotum and abdominopelvic cavity
76
cremaster
muscle in the scrotum that elevates and lowers the testes contracts when its too cold for optimal temperature
77
testicular artery
brings blood from the aorta to the testes
78
pampiniform plexus
group of veins around the testicular artery (from skin) to cool the artery blood temperature
79
testicular vein
formed by the pampiniform plexus for each testical
80
site of sperm production
within the walls of the seminiferous tubules (spagetti)
81
passage of sperm
seminiferous tubules -> rete testis -> efferent ductules -> epididymis -> vas/ ductus deferens -> ejaculatory duct (sprematic cord) -> prostatic urethra-> membranous urethra -> penile urethra
82
seminal vesicles’ fluid
provides energy to the sperm cells in the form of fructose and contains buffers to neutralize the vagina’s acidic environment
83
prostate
a gland that makes prostatic fluid contains prostatic urethra and 2 ejaculatory ducts that join it
84
bulbourethral glands
short duct that connects to the membranous urethra release a small volume of buffering mucus that neutralizes any urinary acids present within the urethra prior to ejaculation
85
The penis
mainly of erectile tissue
86
chambers of erectile tissue
2 corpora cavernosa, corpus spongiosum
87
corpus spongiosum
surrounds the urethra as it emerges from the floor of the pelvis
88
glans
at the end of the penis where the corpus spongiosum is enlarged
89
The penis is made of erectile tissues that expand with blood during erection, which is accomplished through the dilation of _____ and the constriction of _____.
arteries, veins
90
passage of oocyte
Ovary -> fimbriae -> infundibulum -> ampulla -> isthmus -> uterine cavity -> cervix -> vagina ovaries -> uterine tubes -> uterus
91
places of fertilization
infundibulum, ampulla
92
production site of oocytes
the ovaries
93
regions of the uterus
the upper fundus, middle body, and lower cervix
94
layers of the uterus
Endometrium, Myometrium, Perimetrium
95
Endometrium of uterus
the innermost layer. A portion of this layer is shed with each menstrual cycle
96
Myometrium uterus
the middle and most substantial layer. It is made of smooth muscle that contracts during labor to push the fetus through the cervical canal
97
Perimetrium
the outermost layer. Made of the parietal peritoneum, this outer layer is found where the uterus bulges into the peritoneal cavity
98
vulva
The external female genitalia
99
labia majora
skin-covered vulva portion
100
labia minora
internal to the labia majora are the mucosa-covered
101
