Q

Exocrine function of gametogenesis

A

Organs of reproductive system produces gametes

Q

Endocrine function of reproductive/sex hormones

A

IgG: placenta immunity
IgA: breastmilk
-Hormone:
1. Production: Prolactin.
2. Secretion :Oxytocin.

17
Q

Diploid (2n)

A

Cells has 46 chromosomes, two sets of homologous pairs

18
Q

Haploid (n)

A

Cell has 23 chromosomes, one set of homologous pairs

19
Q

Interkinesis

A

Found between first and second rounds of meiosis

20
Q

What happens in meiosis one?

A

Chromosomes split through reduction division

21
Q

What happens in meiosis two

A

Sister chromatids pulled apart

22
Q

Phases in meiosis one

A

Interphase: G1,S,G2
Prophase 1: chromosomes are visible
Metaphase 1: chrom lineup in center
Anaphase 1: chrom move on opposite sides of cell
Telophase 1: cytoplasm forms two cells

23
Q

Meiosis two

A

Men: produce four viable daughter cells (sperm cells)
Woman : produce one viable daughter cell (oocyte)

24
Q

Endocrine function of male reproductive system

A

Produce testosterone

25
Exocrine function of male reproductive system
Spermatogenesis
26
What muscles help regulate testicular temperature?
Dartos and cremaster muscles
27
What does the interstitial cells of Leydig do? (testicles)
Produce hormones, such as testosterone in the testes
28
Viscectomy
Cutting gas deferens
29
Fructose
Nutrients to give sperm energy
30
Bulbourethral gland
Produce alkaline secretion to keep sperm viable for exciting urethra
31
Prostate gland
Prostatic urethra and ejact duct
32
What muscles help make an erection
Corpora cavernosa -corpus spongiosum: - spongy urethra - forms bulb - forms glans penis
33
Circumcision
Surgical removal of fore skin
34
Which vesicle had the highest amount of fluid

True
36
Difference between erection and ejaculation
