Reproduction In Humun Flashcards
Ovuary
Produces ova and release female sex hormone (oestrogen)
Fallopian tube(oviduct)
Site of fertilization
Uterus(womb) muscle
Contract at birth to expel the baby
Uterus lining
Site of implantation
Cervix
Dilates at birth
Vagina
Organ of copulation (sperm deposition)
Testis
Priduces sperms and produce testosterone horomone
Scortum
Keep testes outside the abdominal cavity،at lower temperature than body which is essential for making sperm
Epiderm
Stores sperm
Sperm duct
Carries sperm from testies to urethra
Urethera
Passes out urine or semen
Seminal vesicles
Secrets the seminal fluid
Prostate gland
Their secretion makes the semen alkaline to neturlize acidity of urethra
Fertilization
Fusion of male and female gametes to produce a diploid zygote
Where ova product and by what type of division
In ovary by meiosis
Where sperm produce and what type of division and when
Testies by meiosis at puberty
Where and when follicle stimulation hormone release
Release from pituitary gland in beginning of the cycle
Where oestrogen release
Release from the ovary and follicle
Role of oestrogen
It stimulates the repair of the walls of the uterus
Stop release of fsh by negative feedback
Sitmulates release of LH
Where and when leutinzing hormone release
Pituitary gland
At day 13
Role of leutinizing hormone
1.Stimulate the release of ova into the oviduct(ovulation)
2.Sitmulate the change of the follicle into corpus lutenum
Where Progesterone releare
Release from the corpus litenum
Role of progesterone
Support and maintain the walls of urterus
Role of follicle stimulation
Stimulates the maturation of a folicle in the ovary and release of oestrogen
