🗑
show ovaries, testes  
🗑

🗑
show testes secrete androgens and make male structures; ovaries can't secrete androgens resulting in female structures  
🗑
wolffian ducts   show
🗑
mullerian ducts   show
🗑
mullerian inhibiting factor   show
🗑
show hormone released by the placenta; stimulates early testicular secretion of testosterone which induces develpment of the wolffian ducts into the male reproductive tract (epididymis, ductus deferens, ejaculatory duct, and seminal vesicles)  
🗑
male reproductive tract   show
🗑
show oviducts, uterus, and vagina  
🗑
external reproductive structures requre   show
🗑
genitalia are mostly formed after how many weeks   show
🗑
show testosterone  
🗑
show size of hypothalamic nuclei, cyclic release of gonadotropin, and sexual behavior  
🗑
show 3-5 years  
🗑
menstruation started in 1840 at what age   show
🗑
show stimulated to secreted oil (acne) during puberty  
🗑

function of seminiferous tubules   show
🗑
function of Leydig cells   show
🗑
show small coiled tube which measures about 20 feet, lies along the top and side of the testes; site of maturation of sperm  
🗑
capacitation   show
🗑
vas deferens (ductus deferens)   show
🗑
vasectomy   show
🗑
show carry sperm from vas deferens to urethra  
🗑
urethra   show
🗑
show seminal vesicles, prostate gland, bulbourethral glands; these glands secrete seminal plasma which mixes with the sperm to form semen or seminal fluid  
🗑
seminal vesicles   show
🗑
show lies below the bladder and is doughnut shaped; urethra pases through the small hole in the center; secretes alkaline fluid (13-33% of volume) that helps protect the sperm from the acidic environment of the male urethra and female vagina  
🗑
bulbourethral glands   show
🗑
show depends on quantity and quality of sperm; 2-6 ml, 20 million sperm/ml, 60% normal shape  
🗑
number of sperm produced daily   show
🗑
show 3-4 days  
🗑
show 40 million to 250 million; below 20 million may mean infertility problems  
🗑
show 100-100,000  
🗑

🗑
show fertilized egg  
🗑
what happens to dead sperm in female   show
