A&P II final MC
dr. kelly final on repro & genetics
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Function of male reproductive system | Purpose of male reproductive system is to provide genetic blueprint for next generation and transmit them to female |
| Why are male reproductive structures are outside body cavity? | Because body temperature is too high for spermatozoa production |
| cremastic muscle function | moves testes closer or away from body |
| cryptorchidism | Testes that don’t descend |
| Testes Function | Function 1. spermatogenesis 2. production of hormones |
| Sertoli cells aka | Nurse cells |
| Interstitual cells of Leydig function & location | location: between seminiferous tubules Function: produce & secrete male hormones major testosterone |
| seminiferous tubules join 1 another in a series of tubes that leave testis to ________. | Epididymis |
| Mature sperm functions | 1. must be able to reach ovum and carry genetic information 2. device for locomotion (swim upstream) 3. device for penetrating ovum 4. something to carry half of genetic information |
| Parts & function of Sperm | Head: contain chromosomes & acromsomal cap that have enzymes to penetrate ovum midpiece: mitochondria to produce ATP tail: locomotion |
| How much sperm does a man produce in 24 hours? | 100,000 |
| What must happen before a sperm can fertilize? | capacitation |
| How long can a sperm live in female reproductive system? | 72 hours |
| Epididymis function | 1. Stores sperm and continues with maturation 2. Secretes glycogen for nourishment |
| Ductus Deferens Function | conveys sperm from epididymis to ejaculatory duct & stay there for up to 42 days |
| Spermatic Cord function | to lower temperature |
| Seminal vesicles Location & function | Location:Behind the urinary bladder & contribute 60% of semen Function: Sperm undergo 1st step in capacitation & beating flagella |
| Prostate Gland Location & function | Location: Surrounds the proximal urethra Function: Produces 20-30% of semen & seminalplasmin (antibiotic protein prevents UTI) |
| Bulbourethral glands location & function | Location: At base of penis & each duct enters into the urethra Function: Secretes alkaline mucus to neutralize urinary acids & lubricate the tip of the penis |
| erection of the penis is caused by | engorgement of columns of erectile tissue with blood |
| Process of erection | 1. Sexual Excitement 2. parasymphathetic response 3. release of NO locally 4. relax vascular smooth muscle 5. fill with blood 6. drainage veins compressed |
| Process of ejaculation | 1. Reproductive ducts & glands contract emptying contents into urethra 2. bladder sphincter constricts 3. rapid series of contractions of the smooth muscle of the penis |
| Semen | 2-5ml/ejaculate with 50-130 million sperm/ml |
| What considered a male sterile? | < 200 million sperm per/ejaculate considered sterile |
| Contents of semen | a. liquid – transport b. nutrients – fructose for fuel c. chemicals: - prostaglandins - relaxin - alkaline - antimicrobials |
| Testosterone is produced in response to _______. | HCG which causes testes descent |
| Hormonal control in males | figure 25.6 GnRH in hypothalamus->pituitary gonadatrophins->1. ICSH 2. FSH |
| ICSH | Interstitial cell stimulating hormone that tells cells to make testosterone |
| FSH | tells nurse cells to make ABP to enhance testosterone to bind & inhibin |
| Inhibin | inhibits production of FSH |
| Female Reproductive Function | produce gametes, receive male gametes, provide environment for the fetus, nourish newborn, produce hormones, move offspring out |
| Ovary Function | 1. oogenesis 2. hormone production (estrogen and progesterone) |
| Women have _____ ovum amount where men have ____ sperm amount. | 1. limited 2. unlimited |
| How do twins occur? | when 2 or more ovum are produced in 1 month |
| Oogensis process | 1. primary oocyte at birth & at puberty start process below 2. Meiosis I: polar body & oocyte 3. Meiosis II: 2nd polar body & mature ovum & 1st polar body split into 2 |
| In ovary the oocytes are what type? | primary oocytes |
| primordial follicle | most primitive follicles with very thin layer of follicular support cells |
| primary follice | 1st follicular cells become layered |
| secondary (antral) follicle | when gaps or spaces that fill up fluid are formed |
| mature/Graafian follicle/vesicular | spaces are really filled up with fluid |
| corpus luteum | yellow cells left behind which produces progesterone to maintain lining of uterus no baby=scar tissue |
| follicular atresia | Eggs die off or degenerate & can happen @ any |
| Wall of the uterine tube or fallopian tubes | 1. mucosa: ciliated & secretory 2. muscular 3. serosa |
| Functions of Uterine or fallopian tubes | 1. passageway 2. fertilization occurs here 3. environment for embryo in early stages |
| hymen | fold of mucosa partially covers vaginal orifice |
| Vagina wall | 1. mucosa: non-keratinized strat. squamous epithelium contains glands 2. muscularis: smooth & skeletal at the orfice 3. adventitia: dense CT |
| Mucosa responds to what in the vagina? | 1. estrogen 2. cells produce glycogen 3. bacteria use glycogen & produce lactic acid lowers pH: less pathogenic bacteria |
| Process of Milk Letdown | 1. suckling 2. post pituitary 3. oxytocin 4. myoepithelial cells contract |
| colostrum | 1st milk after birth contains less fat & 1st few days antibodies |
| Lactation contains | 1. lipids 40% 2. sugars (lactose) 7% 3. protein 1/2% |
| Menstrual cycle lasts how many days? | 28 |
| Phases of menstrual cycle | menstrual: 1-4 days proliferative or follicular: 5-14 days secretory or luteal: 15-28 days |
| ovulation occurs on what day & due to what hormone? | day 14 & LH surge |
| Proliferative/follicular/ovary phase | 1. growth of lining w/ increased estrogen levels 2. mucosa from 0 to 2mm 3. glands proliferate and accumulate glycogen 4. coiled arteries spread 5. follicle develops and secretes estrogen due to increased FSH |
| Secretory/luteal/uterus phase | 1. during time of corpus luteum which produces progesterone in response to LH 2. 4mm thick 3. less mitosis but glands hypertrophy 4. glands produce glycogen-rich secretion 5. progesterone maintains lining of uterus |
| If no pregnancy occurs this occurs @ the end of the secretory/luteal/uterus phase | - corpus luteum declines – decrease in progesterone – onset of menstruation |
| Menstrual day 1 | 1. endometrium destroyed/lost if no implantation 2. spiral arteries constrict and relax repeatedly -> the relaxation causes vessel walls to rupture 3.. only basalis layer (raw) remains |
| FSH | stimulates follicles in the ovary |
| LH | helps the corpus luteum |
| estrogen | effects the uterine lining growth |
| progesterone | for growth of the fetus by maintaining the uterine lining through secretions |
| Negative feedback for female hormones | estrogen & progesterone "turn off" production of FSH & LH becuase no follicles developing |
| fertilization location: | ampulla of uterine tube |
| How many sperm are deposited in comparison to those who reach the egg? | 200-300 million ejaculated 300-500 reach egg |
| sperm penetrate egg only if | 1. capacitation occurs: proteins over acrosome removed 2. acrosome reaction occurs: enzymes released egg induces this occurance |
| zygote | when genetic info merges a loose ball of cells until 8 cell stage |
| blastomere | 2 cell stage of a zygote each cells is called this |
| morula | compact 16 cell stage until hollow joined together by tight junctions 3 days after fertilization inner & outer cell mass |
| blastocyte | cells cont. divide & cavity develops inner cell mass & a outer cells mass |
| embryo | inner cell mass of a blastocyst |
| trophoblast | outer cell mass of blastocyst consists of 2 layers: cytotrophoblast & syncytiotrophoblast |
| cytotrophoblast | part of the inner & oval-shaped cells clearly defined & mitotic give rise to syncytio function: hormone HCG, maintain corpus luteum->progesterone->maintain endometrium->takes over for corpus luteum-> estrogen & pregesterone |
| synctiotrophoblast | part of the outer & multi-nucleated with no cell boundaries function: chorionic villi |
| implantation | begins end of 1st week and ends during 2nd week – blastocyst reaches uterus 6-7 1. days after fertilization 2. trophoblast “ wears away” bearing (nidation) at uterine lining (endometrium) which grows over the blastocyst |
| gastrulation | formation of 3 germ layers from inner cells mass (embryonic disc) |
| major developments in embryonic stage | 1. formation of placenta 2. main internal organs develop 3. major external features appear |
| embryonic stage | 3-8 weeks |
| Teratogens examples | thalidomide, rubella, alcohol, cigarettes, vitamin deficiency |
| Teratogens | 1. developing child most susceptible to factors causing malformations during embryonic period 2. each system has time period during which most susceptible ■ ex, neural tube defects like spina bifida or anencephaly at day 28 |
| 3rd month (9 week)-birth changes | fetal period changes: - tissue maturation - organ maturation - rapid body growth |
| pregnancy length | 280 days: 40 week from LNMP 266 days: 38 weeks after fertilization |
| chorionic villus sampling | 0.8% loss due to procedure checks chromosomes week 6-8 |
| amniocentesis | 0.5% loss due to this ■ needle takes 20-30 ml amniotic fluid ■ after week 14 ■ test for a fetoprotein (AFP) which is high in neural tube defects (also test this in mom’s blood) ■ fetal cells in fluid look for chromosomal abnormalities |
