Male Reproductive System Flashcards
Site of spermatozoa production
Seminiferous tubules
Where does mature spermatozoa moved to
Moved to the lumen
Each new cycle of spermatozoa occur
Each 16 Days new cycle
Spermatozoa production need how many days
70 -80 days
SpermaTogenesis is under the influence of which hormone
Is under the influence of FSH
Mention the 3 phases of spematogenesis
1) spermatocytogenesis .
2) spermatidogenesis .
3) spermiogenesis .
Spermatocytogenesis is from which ————>————
From spermatogonium till the formation of 2ndry spermatocyte
Spermatidogenesis from ——>——-
Is from the 2ndry spermatocyte till formation of spermatid
Spermiogenesis is from ———>———
Is the formation of sperm from spermatid
In spermatocytogeneisis primary spermatocyte is produced due to which type of division
Spermatogonium undergoe mitosis producing primary spermatocyte
Primary spermatocyte no of chromosome
2n diploid 46 chromosome s
Which stage of spermatogenesis undergoes meiosis 1
1ry spermatocyte —-> meiosis 1 —-> 2ndry spermatocyte 1n 2 c
2n 4 c
2ndry spermatocyte no of chromosome
23 ch 2c , undergoe meiosis 2
So each one will produce 2 spermatid with 23 ch and 1 c
No of chromosome and chromatids in each stage
Define spermiogenesis
Is the maturation of spermatid
Spermiogenesis is under the influence of which hormone
Is under the influence of testosterone.
Spermatid structural changes during spermiogenesis
1 ) axoneme forms
2) Golgi apparatus become the acrosome
3) centrioles become the tail
4) DNA BECOME HIGHLY CONDENSED
40 EXCESSIVE CYTOPLASM IS REMOVED FROM THE SPERM S RESIDUAL BODIES .
Define spermiation
Is the release of mature spermatozoa from the Sertoli cells to the lumen of the seminefrous tubules .
Sperm structure
1 ) head
2) body
3) tail
Sperm acrosome is within which structure of the sperm
Head
Mitochondria of the sperm is placed
In the body or the mid piece of the sperm .
When does GNRH release start at which age
At the age of 10
What does GNrH release leading to
It leads to production of FSH and LH.
Fsh works on and what does stimulate
It works on the seminefrous tubules
Stimulating spermatogenesis
