Question
Answer
Superficial fascia layer of the testes.   show
🗑
A layer of the pelvis separating deep perineal sac from the upper pelvis. Contains voluntary sphincter muscle.   show
🗑
The serous sheath of the testis and epididymis, derived from the peritoneum, and consisting of an outer and inner serous layer.   show
🗑
Attaches the developing testes to the posterior wall (inferior pocket) of the peritoneum.   show
🗑
During the 7 months of development circulating hormones cause the gubernaculum to ________.   show
🗑
The main duct through which semen is carried from the epididymis to the ejaculatory duct.   show
🗑
show The spermatic cord begins at the deep inguinal ring, extends along the inguinal canal, exits at the superficial inguinal ring and descends into the scrotum.  
🗑
show pampiniform plexus  
🗑
An artery with origin in the aorta, with branches to the ureteral, cremasteric, and epididymal arteries, with distribution to the testicle, and with anastomoses to the branches of the renal, inferior epigastric, and deferential arteries.   show
🗑
show herniorrhaphy  
🗑
show inguinal hernia  
🗑
An indirect inguinal hernia protrudes through the__________.   show
🗑
show A direct herniation occurs within Hesselbach's Triangle.  
🗑
show the internal ring  
🗑
show cryptorchidism  
🗑
show orchioplasty (or "orchidoplasty" according to Ms. P.)  
🗑
Surgical freeing of an undescended testicle with implantation into the scrotum.   show
🗑
The central anteroposterior line of the perineum, most marked in the male, being continuous with the raphe of the scrotum.   show
🗑
A pathological accumulation of serous fluid in a bodily cavity, especially in the scrotal pouch.   show
🗑
show prostate  
🗑
show tunica albuginea  
🗑
Four basic cell types involved in spermatogenesis.   show
🗑
Sperm are stored and mature in the ____________.   show
🗑
Spermatogonia (and their immediate progeny) divide by _______. One of the daughter groups, the primary spermatocytes, then begins the process of _______.   show
🗑
Hormone created by the interstitial cells in the seminiferous tubules.   show
🗑
What is MIF a.k.a. AMH?   show
🗑
show leydig cells, a.k.a. "interstitial cells" or "Sertoli Cells"  
🗑
show müllerian duct  
🗑
show spermiation  
🗑
show vas (ductus) deferens  
🗑
show As the vas joins with duct openings from accessory glands, the tube expands to form the ejaculatory duct. The ejaculatory duct continues as the urethra.  
🗑
Either of two small glands that are located below the prostate and discharge a component of the seminal fluid into the urethra.   show
🗑
Process of making the sperm capable of penetrating the ovum. (takes 1-10 hours)   show
🗑
Process by which stem cells (spermatogonium) produce two daughter cells that differentiate into spermatocytes.   show
🗑
Special form of cell division (reduction-division) which produces gametes.   show
🗑
show testicular torsion  
🗑
An anastomosing network of delicate tubules located in the hilum of the testicle that carries sperm from the seminiferous tubules to the vasa efferentia.   show
🗑
A nonmalignant enlargement of the prostate gland commonly occurring in men after the age of 50, and sometimes leading to compression of the urethra and obstruction of the flow of urine.   show
🗑
Semen, a slightly alkaline secretion, contains which three substances?   show
🗑
Secretions of semen components are discharged into the ampulla of the _______ at emission by _______ under the control of the ________ nervous system.   show
🗑
show seminal vesicles  
🗑
show The prostate gland produces prostatic fluid which is slightly acidic, and contributes 20-30% of semen volume. This fluid contains an antibiotic called seminalplasmin.  
🗑
show transurethral resection of the prostate  
🗑
A recently approved technique which can be done with a local anesthetic on an outpatient basis, and uses radio frequency energy delivered through needles to kill excess prostate tissue. (heat induced). Improves urine flow.   show
🗑
The male urethra is divided into which 3 parts?   show
🗑
show PSA / prostate-specific antigen  
🗑
show A typical ejaculation contains 2-5 ml of semen (ejaculate). This contains 20-100 million per mL of spermatozoa.  
🗑
show the mucus secretions of the vagina.  
🗑
Sperm count should be at least ________ in an ejaculate.   show
🗑
show 60%  
🗑
Semen is a thick gel at the time of ejaculation and normally becomes liquid within 20 minutes after ejaculation. ____ time is a measure of the time it takes for the semen to liquefy.   show
🗑
show 36-hour  
🗑

🗑
One of the superficial muscles of the perineum. In males, it covers the bulb of the penis. In females, it covers the vestibular bulb.   show
🗑
show corpora cavernosa  
🗑
show corpus spongiosum  
🗑
