trait is controlled by combined effects of two or more genes

18
Q

Complex inheritance

21
Q

Dartos Muscle

A

Separates testes in scrotum

22
Q

LH in males

A

Males: stimulates testosterone

23
Q

FSH

A

Males: stimulates spermatogenesis; negative feedback indirectly

24
Q

Testosterone

A

Negative feedback; prenatal development, sexual function and characteristics

25
Q

Travel of sperm

A

Seminiferous tubules, straight tubules, rete testis, efferent ducts, to epididymis (where sperm mature) to vas deferens to spermatic cord

26
Q
