Q

Codominance

A

Like Type A and B blood being expressed equally

17
Q

Polygenic inheritance

A

trait is controlled by combined effects of two or more genes

18
Q

Complex inheritance

A

trait occurs from combined effects of many genes and environmental factors (skin color, height, body build, hair and eye color)

19
Q

Karyotype

A

chromosome arranged according to position of centromere

20
Q

Sex-linked trait example

A

Red-green color blindness.

Non-sexual traits inherited on X chromosome

21
Q

Dartos Muscle

A

Separates testes in scrotum

22
Q

LH in males

A

Males: stimulates testosterone

23
Q

FSH

A

Males: stimulates spermatogenesis; negative feedback indirectly

24
Q

Testosterone

A

Negative feedback; prenatal development, sexual function and characteristics

25
Travel of sperm
Seminiferous tubules, straight tubules, rete testis, efferent ducts, to epididymis (where sperm mature) to vas deferens to spermatic cord
26
Seminal Vesicles
secrete alkaline viscous fluid with fructose and clotting protiens
27
Prostate
secretes milky slightly acidic fluid with citric acid. | Every fluid has prostate but is super high in ejaculate
28
Bulbourethral gland
secrete alkaline fluid during sexual arousal that neutralized acids
29
Corpus Luteum produces hormones...
Progesterone, estrogen, and inhibin. | Develops after ovulation.
