Q

characteristic of asexual reproduction

A
-no production of gametes
except in parthenogenesis
-organism produce many offspring in a short time rapidly
-offspring genetically identical
to their parents 
-dont need mates to reproduce.

Q

advantage sexual reproduction

A

-permits the recombination of genetic
material from different parents
-variation occur
-able to adapt to surrounding(increase survival)

Q

external fertilisation

A
-fusion of gametes which meet outside
the body in an aquatic environment

Q

internal fertilisation

A

male generally
delivers sperm directly into
female through copulation. fertilisation occur inside female’s.
-Oviparity (ayam, biawak,ikang)
-viviparity (humans ;), mammals basically)
-Ovoviviparity (develop inside egg shell, within the mother’s body)

disadvantages sexual reproduction

A
  • take more time and energy
  • successful rate is not 100% :(

Q

function of accessory gland??

  • seminal vesicle

17
Q

function of testes?

A

contain seminiferous tubule; formation of sperm

secrete testosterone

18
Q

where leydig cell is located at?

A

-at testes, between seminiferous tubule; secrete testosterone

19
Q

function of epididymis?? tau tak tu??

A

for sperm maturation ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

20
Q

function of male reproductive system??

A

produce sperm in testis
transfer sperm in semen
produce testosterone;
-regulate sexual activities and behaviour of male
-stimulate development and maintanence of male secondary sexual character& accessory sex organ

21
Q

role of female reproductive system?? :3

A

produce ovum
transfer ovum to oviduct; fertilisation take place(fallopian tube)
prepare uterus wall for implantation
secrete main sex hormone; estrogen and progesterone

22
Q

function of sertoli cell

A

nourish sperm-forming cell
provide right environment for sperm
secrete fluid which fill the lumen(seminiferous tubule)
phagocyte foreign particles

23
Q

function of hypothalamus in spermatogenesis

A

secrete GnRH when testosterone level drop; stimulate pituitary anterior lobe to secrete LH and FSH

24
Q

function of LH (spermatogenesis)

A

LH - Leydig cell; secrete testosterone

25
Q

function FSH (spermatogenesis)

A

F’S’H - ‘S’ertoli cell; jump spermatogenesis at puberty

26
Q

what happen when testosterone level peaked???

A

GnRH and LH slow down; reduce production of testosterone (by who??Leydig cell laaaaa)

27
Q

what happen when sperm count increase?? 0-0

A

Sertoli cell release inhibin act on hypothalamus and pituitary anterior lobe
cut the release of GnRH & FSH
lower the sperm count

28
Q

reproductive cycle of female?

A

the ovaries

the uterine cycle

29
Q

what are the phases of ovarian cycle

A

follicular phase
ovulation phase
luteal phase

30
Q

what is follicular phase/estrogenic phase (ovarian cycle)

A

First phase in ovarian cycle
growth and development of follicles.
only one follicle become mature graafian follicle
Other follicles release E2; thicken endometrium wall

31
Q

what happen in ovulation phase

A

ovulation occurs

day 14 of menstrual cycle

32
Q

what is luteal phase/progestogenic phase??

A

3rd phase in ovarian cycle
GF—Corpus Luteum
high progesterone; thickening endometrium wall.

33
Q

what will happen to corpus luteum when pregnancy occur??

A

CL will increase in size

Level of progesterone increase

34
Q

what happen if pregnancy does not occur? :’(

A

CL will degenerate
Pg level drop; at critical level, endometrium ruptures.
New ovarian cycle will start

35
Q

phases of uterine/menstrual cycle

A
  1. menstrual flow phase
  2. proliferative phase
  3. secretory phase
36
Q

what happen in menstrual flow (menstrual cycle)

A

menstruation occur

due to decrease level of Pg; degeneration of CL

37
Q

what is menstruation

A

a blood vaginal discharge that occurs spontaneously and represent the shedding of endometrium every month.
discharge dead endometrium cell, blood vaginal cell, mucous from the cervix and other dead tissues

38
Q

proliferative phase

A

thickening and regeneration of the endometrium wall
begins after menstrual stop
proliferate under the influence of E2

39
Q

secretory phase

A

begins after ovulation

endometrium continues to thicken and the vascularization of endometrium increases

40
Q

at secretory phase, endometrium develop glands that secrete…

A

glycogen rich fluid to nourish embryo to nourish the embryo
