Explain the structures of the testis
- Spermatogonia (2n): A large unspecialized germ cell that in spermatogenesis divides by mitosis to form primary spermatocytes
- Primary spermatocytes (2n): original large diploid cell into which a spermatogonium develops; it can later undergo the first meiotic division into the secondary spermatocyte
- Spermatids (n): haploid male gametid that results from division of secondary spermatocytes. As a result of meiosis, each spermatid contains only half of the genetic material present in the original primary spermatocyte.
- Immature sperm (n): Sertoli cells form the walls of a seminiferous tubule. Sertoli cells nourish, support, and protect developing germ cells, which undergo cell division by meiosis to form spermatozoa (immature sperm).
- Sustentacular (nurse) cells: testicles that is part of a seminiferous tubule and helps in the process of spermatogenesis; that is, the production of sperm.
- Interstitial (Leydig) cells: also known as interstitial cells of Leydig, are found adjacent to the seminiferous tubules in the testicle. They produce testosterone in the presence of luteinizing hormone (LH).

Explain the layers of the uterus
- Endometrial base layer:
- Endometrial functional layer (sluffs off)
- Myometrium: middle layer of the uterine wall
- Perimetrium (serosa)

Explain the innermost glandular layer and functions as a lining for the uterus, preventing adhesion between the opposed walls of the myometrium.
