18
Q

Prostate gland

A

Secrete mucus fluid to neutralize urine acids (urethra)
•pH
-alkaline and mucoid fluid

19
Q

Cowper’s gland

A

Mucus like fluid
•lubricant
•alkaline and mucoid fluids to semen

20
Q

Semen

A

Combination of sperm cells and fluids
-enters urethra
(Parasympathetic and sympathetic)

21
Q

Urethra

A

Is a duct that carried fluid through the penis
-semen enters through ductus deferens
•shared urinary and repro system

22
Q

Ejaculation

A

Sensory stimulation/arousal/co-ordinated muscular contractions ALL combine to trigger ejaculations
•semen leaves penis (target: vagina)

23
Q

Sperm cells

A

Carried genetic material from father
(23chromosomes)
~100 million sperm per day

24
Q

Sertoli cells

A

INSIDE the tubules beside the maturing spent and provided nourishment

25
Interstitial cells
Located OUT the tubules and secretes TESTOSTERONE | -triangle shaped
26
Pathway males
``` Spermatogenesis (In seminiferous) -epididymis -ductus deferens -seminal vesicle -prostate -cowpers -ejaculatory duct—->urethra ```
27
Development
Embryo ;XY MALE | Puberty; 1&2 characteristics included
28
Female sex characteristics
Primary: anatomy Secondary: puberty
29
Ovaries
Ovary - follicles - fimbriae - oviduct
30
Ovary
Internal -produce limited gametes in life -make and store the Ova (EGG) -provide safe environment for fertilization/nourishment for fetus •OOGENESIS •FEMALE HORMONES (progesterone&estrogen)
31
Meiosis
Zygote (2n)
32
Follicles
SINGLE ovum develops within it •each month 1 mature follicle releases 1 I un into oviduct •ovulation= if egg fertilizes a corpus luteum is present
33
Fimbriae
SWEEPS THE Ovum FROM OVARY INTO OVIDUCT
34
Oviduct
(Fallopian tube) •muscular tube connecting ovaries to uterus •moved down Fallopian tube by cilia and muscle •contractions •site if FERTILIZATION—-zygote
35
Uterus:Vagina
* uterus * endometrium * cervicale * vagina
36
Uterus
(Womb) •hollow:muscle •pear shape and size •HOLD and Nourish a fetus developing
37
Endometrium
``` Inner lining of UTERUS •nutrient rich blood material •zygote attaches implanted •embryo= zygote becomes an embryo -blood vessels •SHED in menstruation ```
38
Cervix
BASE of uterus •secretes music that can facilitate or prevent the entrance of sperm depending on menstruel cycle •holding baby in uterus •susceptible to cancer (pap test)
39
Vagina
~8-10cm long -men’s that flow/birth of child/ penis deposits sperm •slightly acidic to help from bacteria growth
40
Vulva (external)
* labia (2) | * clitoris
41
Labia
Skin folds that protect vaginal opening •outer= labia MAJORA •inner=labia MINORA
42
Clitoris
Arousal centre/ firms up
43
Pathway female
Ovary - ovulation- - oviduct - uterus - cervix - vagina (Same with pregnancy but elongated)
44
Development female
Embryo ; XX Puberty; primary and secondary sex characteristics -menstruation begins
