| What structure helps regulate the temperature of the testes? A. Dartos Muscle B. Tunica Vaginalis C. Tunica Albuginea D. Seminiferous Tubules E. A & E. | B. Dartos Muscle |
| This structure is the site of sperm production | Seminiferous tubules |
| How many seminiferous tubules are found in each lubule? | 1-3 |
| These cells may eventually become spermatozoa | Spermatogonia |
| These cells secrete testosterone | Leydig Cells |
| This hormone stimulates Leydig cells to secrete testosterone | Luteinzing Hormone (LH) |
| The straight tubules in the testis lead into the... | Rete Testis |
| The fx of the epididymis is... | Sperm Maturation |
| What is formed by the union of the duct from the seminal vesicle & the ampulla of the vas deferens? | Ejaculatory Duct |
| This lies posterior to the ladder & anterior to the rectum. It secretes an alkaline, fructose filled liquid. | Seminal Vesicles |
| Located inferior to the prostate on either side of the membranous urethra withing the deep muscles of the perineum are the... | Bulbourethral (Cowper's) Gland |
| Structure composed of 3 cylindrical masses of erectile tissue each surrounded by a fibrous tissue. | Penis |
| This ligament arises from the pubic symphisis in males | Suspensory Ligament |
| What is produced by the ovaries? | Secondary oocytes, estrogen, & progesterone |
| This attaches the ovaries & the uterus to the pelvic wall. | Suspensory Ligament |
| The site of fertilization | Uterine Tubes (mainly ampulla) |
| The portion of the uterus that opens into the vagina | Cervix |
| Anterior to the vagina & urethral openings is the | Mons Pubis |
| Skene's glands secrete | Mucus |
| Hormone which promotes the final step of spermatogenesis | Testosterone |
| Hormone which triggers ovulation | Luteinizing Hormone (LH) |
| Hormone secreted by the corpus leteum post ovulation | Progesterone |
| Uterine phase when the thickness of the endometrium doubles | Proliferative Phase |
| Ovarian phase between the end of menstruation & beginning of ovulation | Preovulatory Phase |
| Menarche is the... | First Menses |
| Male reproductive system arises from | wolffian ducts |
| Female reproductive system arises from | Mullerian ducts |
| During fetal development these cells give rise to primary oocytes | Oogonia |
| The major hormone secreted from granulosa cells is | Estrogen |
| A zygote is a... | Diploid fertilized ovum |
| Which hormone inhibits the release of FSH from the pituitary gland? | Inhibin |
| In male embryos, this hormone is responsible for the development of the urethra, prostate, & external genitals. | Dihydrotestosterone |
| The primary action of combined oral contraceptives is to (4) | Suppress FSH & LH; block implantation in the uterus; inhibit ovulation; inhibit entry of sperm into the uterus |
| How does the reproductive system affect the skeletal system? | Estrogen causes epiphyseal plates of both to close, ending growth of height |
| A Pap smear is a test performed to detect | Cervical Cancer |
