bulbospongiosus

Question 6

crura of the vagina and clitoris

Question 7

What muscle covers the corpus cavenosus?

Answer 7

ischicavernosus

Question 8

What does the parasympathetic innervation does to the erectile tissue?

Answer 8

allows relaxation of smooth mm.

making the erectile tissue hard

Question 9

What does the sympathetic innervation does to erectile tissue?

Answer 9

causes contraction of smooth mm.

making erectile tissue softer

Question 10

Answer 10

DIRECTLY THROUGH UROGENITAL HIATUS,

NOT RIDING WITH PUDENDAL NERVE

Answer 11

SACRAL SPLANCHINC NERVES

PELVIC SPLANCHINC NERVES

Question 12

Answer 12

corpora cavernosa -crura

Corpus spongiosum - bulb

Question 13

Where is the corpus spongiosum in males?

Answer 13

surrounds the urethra

Question 14

Where is the corpora cavernosa in males?

Answer 14

crura

Question 15

What covers the corpus spongiosum in male s?

Answer 15

bulbospongiosum

Question 16

What covers the corpora cavernosa in males?

Answer 16

ischiocavernosum

Question 17

What does the corpus cavernous have surrounding it?

Answer 17

a thicker tunica albuginea =
more resistance
more pressure
more rigidity

Question 18

What does the corpus spongiosum have surrounding it?

Answer 18

has a thinner tunica albuginea  = 
less resistance
less pressure
more compressible
Urethra runs entirely thorough this!

corpus spongiosum superiorly

Question 25
