*A/P- REPRODUCTIVE SYS*

  1. *Reproductive Sys*
    • - Male & Female Sex cells = gamets
    • - Once M/F sex cells are joined 2/gether they're called Zygote
    • - Sex Glands R called Gonads
  2. *Male*
    *Testes*
    • - Small oval organ
    • - Produces millions of spcimen cells/day
    • - Contains coiled tubes called seminiferous Tubules.
  3. *Scrotum*
    • - 2 Regulate temp
    • - temp has 2 b 2degrees less than body temp.
  4. *Conducting Tube*
    - frm Testes 2 sperm goes 2 Epididymis
  5. *Accessory Glands*
    - produce Semen
  6. 1. *Seminal Vesicle*
    • ~ opens n/2 the "Vas Deference"
    • ~ secretion is rich in frutcose & other nutrients 4 the energy of the sperm cells
  7. 2.*Prostate*
    • ~ located @ the neck of the bladder
    • ~ secretes a milky alkaline secretion 4 Mortility & Neutralization of acid
  8. 3. *Cowpers Gland*
    or
    3.*BulboUrethral Glands*
    • ~ located on ea. side of the "Ureter"
    • ~ Pre-ejaculation secretion
  9. *Penis*
    • ~ 2 deliver sperm
    • ~ has got a (Shaft) & an elongated (tip) called (Glans)
    • ~ 3 Cylinders of erectile tiss
  10. *3 Cylinders of Erectile Tiss*
    • 1. Fallopian Tube
    • 2. Uterus
    • 3. Functions
  11. *Fallopian Tube*
    • ~ Open end is called "Fimbria"
    • ~ Fertilization takes place here
  12. *Uterus* (there r 3 parts)
    • 1. Fundus
    • 2. Body
    • 3. Cervix
  13. *3 Layers*
    • 1. Perimetrium
    • 2. Myometrium
    • 3. Endometrium
  14. *Functions*
    • ~ Pregnancy
    • ~ Menstrual
    • ~ Labor
  15. *Vagina*
    • ~ Lies in bet. the bladder in front & rectum behind.
    • ~ Surrounds the lower part of the Cervix
  16. *Vulva*
    • ~ Female external genital organs
    • ~ Labia Majora {Outer Lip}
    • ~ Labia Minora {Inner Lip}
