25
testis
produce both sperm and androgens, primarily testosterone
26
testis contain
``` spermatic cord seminiferous tubule efferent ductule epididymis vas deferens tunica albuginea tunica vaginalis cavity of tunica albuginea ```
27
divisions of epididymis
head body and tail
28
cord-like structure in males formed by the vas deferens
spermatic cord
29
site of spermatogenesis where germ cells develop into spermatozoa in close interaction with sertoli cells
seminiferous tubule
30
series of parallel thin, delicate tubules that connect the rete testis to a single tub of the epididymis
efferent ductule
31
a highly convoluted duct behind the testis, along which sperm passes to the vas deferens
epididymis
32
the duct which conveys sperm from the testicle to the urethra
vas deferens
33
enlargement of the ductus deferens at the fundus of the bladder which acts as a reservoir for sperm
ampulla of vas deferens
34
arterial supply of vas deferens
superior vesical artery and testicular artery
35
venous drainage of vas deferens
testicular vein and paminiform plexus
36
lymph drainage of vas deferens
external iliac nodes
37
form a short ejaculatory duct
each ductus deferens joins the duct from the adjacent seminal vesicle
38
ejaculatory duct passes through
the prostate gland and empties into urethra
39
arterial supply of ejaculatory duct
superior vesical arteries
40
venous drainage of ejaculatory duct
prostatic and vesical venous plexuses
41
lymph drainage of ejaculatory duct
external iliac nodes
42
function of accessory glands
secrete fluids that enter the urethra
43
accessory glands include
seminal vesicles prostatic gland bulbourethral gland
44
seminal vesicles
secret fluid which is viscous and contains fructose prostaglandins and proteins
45
arterial supply of seminal vesicle
inferior vesicle and middle rectal arteries venous drainage is same
46
lymph drainage of seminal vesicle
external iliac nodes for superior | internal iliac nodes for inferior
47
prostate
``` dense structure that encircles the urethra as it leaves the urinary bladder secretions of the prostate are thin, milky colored, and alkaline function to enhance the motility of the sperm ```
48
arterial supply of prostate
prostatic arteries branches of interal iliac artery inferior vesical arteries internal pudendal artery middle rectal artery
49
venous drainage of prostate
prostatic venous plexus drains into internal iliac veins
50
lymph drainage of prostate
internal iliac lymph nodes some drain into sacral nodes
51
bulborethral gland
also known as cowpers gland located at the base of the penis enters the penile urethra
52
in response to sexual stimulation bulboetheral gland secrets
alkaline mucus like fluid
53
accessory sex organs of the female include
uterine tube uterus vagina vulva
54
where do the ovaries lie
in the ovarian fossa in the lateral wall of the pelvis invested by double fold of peritoneum called mesovarium
55
primary female sex organ
ovaries
56
relations of the ovaries
lies between bifurcation of common iliac vessels on the obturater nerve
57
ureter relation to ovaries
posterolteral to the ovary
58
separate ovaries and thinnest part of acetabulum
obturater internus and its fascia
59
ligaments of the ovaries
round ligament and suspensory ligament
60
connect the ovaries and uterus
uterine tube
61
receive the ovulated egg and site of fertilisation
uterine tube
62
parts of the uterine tube
infundibulum ampulla isthmus (closes to uterus) interstitial segment
63
regions of uterus
funds body cervix
64
support of the uterus includes
pelvic floor muscle round ligaments transverse cervical ligaments uterosacral ligaments
65
pelvic floor muscle
pelvic diaphragm urogenital diaphragm
66
round ligament pathway
lateral uterus through 
inguinal canal to labia majora
67
maintain anteverted position
round ligaments
68
transverse cervical ligaments pathway
lateral cervix and vagina 
to pelvic wall
69
uterosacral ligaments pathway
Inferior uterus to sacrum
70
lymph vessels from the fundus drain into the
para-aortic nodes
71
lymph vessels from the body and cervix drain into the
internal and external iliac lymph nodes
72
lymph vessels from the round ligament of the uterus
superficial inguinal lymph nodes
73
length of vagina
