protein in urine

25
intercellular fluid
water & electrolytes within cells
26
extracellular fluid
water & electrolytes outside cells interstitial fluid, plasma, lymph
27
A pH in the body below 7.35 is called
acidosis
28
Menstrual cycle occurs every
month
29
A structure that functions both in the urinary system and the male reproductive system is the
penis
30
Final maturation of sperm cells occur in the
epididymus
31
A function of FSH in the male is to
stimulate spermatogenesis
32
In the male, LH causes
male hormones to be secreted testosterone
33
Seminal vesicles produce
alkaline fluid & prostaglandins
34
The seminal vesicles are located
near the urinary bladder, attached to the vas deferens
35
Does manufacture products that become part of the semen
1. seminal vesicles 2. prostate gland 3. bulbourethral glands
36
A normal mature human spermatozoa contains
43 pairs of chromosomes
37
Interstitial cells of Leydig produce
male hormones
38
The oogenesis begins in females
at puberty
39
Helps move oocyte into and through the uterine tube?
fimbria of the fallopian tubes
40
Functions of estrogen
1. female secondary sex characteristics 2. adipose tissue deposition 3. increased vascularization of the skin
41
During the menstrual cycle, the endothelium would be the thickest
late in the phase
42
During the menstrual cycle, LH is at the highest levels
during ovulation & when estrogen and progesterone levels fall
43
During the menstrual cycle, progesterone would be a the highest levels?
late in the phase
44
During the menstrual cycle, progesterone is produced by
the ovaries
45
The main function of progesterone during the menstrual cycle is to
trigger uterine changes | shedding of lining
46
If fertilization does not occur, the corpus luteum
degenerates & the uterine lining is shed
47
The main control center of the female reproductive system is the
ovaries
48
The corpus luteum produces
progesterone
49
prostate gland
surrounds the urethra, secretes white alkaline fluid male
50
scrotum
pouch of skin that houses the testes
51
uterus
where baby grows, has 3 layers
52
ducts deferens
empties continents into the urethra
53
bulbourethral gland
secrete mucous & lubricates tip during sexual arousal
54
Leydig cells produce
testosterone
55
mitosis
cell separates the chromosomes into 2 identical sets in the nucleus
56
meiosis
cell division - sexual production
57
Menopause usually occurs in a woman
middle age aging of ovaries, estrogen levels decline
