Q
  • passageway of sperm to the ejaculatory duct
A

Vas deferens/sperm duct/Wolfian duct

21
Q

(mesonephric duct in male frog)

A

Vas deferens/sperm duct/Wolfian duct

22
Q
  • in frogs, tiny ducts lying within mesorchium; has connections to the collecting tubules
A

Vas efferentia

23
Q

3 types of acessory glands

A

Seminal vesicle
Prostate gland
Bulbourethral gland

24
Q
  • secrete seminal fluid containing substances
A

Accessory glands

25
- secretes fluid for lubrication
Bulbourethral gland
26
Seminal vesicle in frog, called
vesicular seminalis
27
- secrete water, fructose, prostaglandins & Vit C as energy source of sperms & neutralize vaginal acidity
Seminal vesicle
28
- secretes water, enzymes, cholesterol, buffering salts, & phospholipids
Prostate gland
29
w/c serves as temporary storage of sperm shortly before copulation
Vesicular seminalis
30
Sperm + seminal fluid =
SEMEN
31
- erectile organ for copulation
Penis
32
2 functions of penis:
1) carries urine thru the urethra; & 2) transports semen thru the urethra
33
- in male frog, for the discharge of sperm
CLOACA
34
-produce eggs and the female sex hormones estrogen & progesterone
Ovaries
35
female sex hormones
estrogen & progesterone
36
fertilization in humans usually occurs in the upper third of the uterine tube
Uterine tubes or fallopian tubes - or oviduct (in frog)
37
one from each ovary; carry eggs from the ovary to the uterus
Uterine tubes or fallopian tubes - or oviduct (in frog)
38
- has internal opening called ostium which is connected to the cloaca
Oviduct/Muellerian duct
39
egg is released from the ovary
Ovulation
40
receives the blastocyst & houses the developing embryo in human
Uterus(in humans)
41
- serves as storage area of ova during spawning season
Ovisac
42
-counterpart in male is the seminal vesicle
Ovisac
43
- serves for the discharge of ova in female frog
Cloaca
44
Uterine wall
Endometrium
45
receives the penis during copulation & also serves as the birth canal
Vagina
46
- muscular tube (smooth muscles & elastic tissue)
Vagina
47
External genitalia or vulva composed of:
mons pubis labia minora labia majora vestibular glands clitoris - erectile organ of females vaginal opening
48
produces hormones that prepare the mother's body for pregnancy
CORPUS LUTEUM
49
- erectile organ of females
clitoris
