🗑
the mother always provides ..... chromosomes   x  
🗑
how are somatic cells divided   mitosis  
🗑
sex cells divide by   meiosis  
🗑
mitosis creates...   another cell with all of the DNA from the first cell  
🗑
meiosis creates   another cell with only half of the DNA as the original  
🗑
how many cycles of division is meiosis   2  
🗑
when an egg precursor cell divides, half of the genetic material is discarded in the form of   polar body  
🗑
the main structures of the female reproductive system   vagina, uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries  
🗑
what are the layers of the uterus   endometruim, myometrium, perimetruim  
🗑
what is the opening to the cervix called   cervical os  
🗑
how is the vagina lubricated during sex   glands in the vagina secrete fluid  
🗑
the outer portion of the female genitalia contains 2 folds called   labium minus (inner lip area), labium majus (outer lip area)  
🗑
the vagina terminates at the   cervix  
🗑
the uterus is what kind of organ   muscular  
🗑
the endometrium layer of the uterus does what?   fertilized egg deposits here  
🗑
the myometrium layer of the uterus does what   middle muscle layer  
🗑
the perimetrium layer is the... layer   outer  
🗑
an egg is only present in the uterus during   ovulation  
🗑
ovulation is   when an egg matures in the ovary and is ejected into the fallopian tube  
🗑
the male reproductive system included the   penis, testes, vas deferens, epididymis, seminiferous tubules, prostate gland and bulbourethral gland.  
🗑
what is the storage structure for sperm   epidydimis  
🗑
the epidydimis is located where   on the top of each testicle  
🗑
the .... is a muscular tube that transports sperm from the epididymis to the urethra during ejaculation   vas deferens  
🗑
the winding tubes in the testes are called   seminiferous tubules  
🗑
sperm are produced by dividing cells called   sertoli cells  
🗑
during development what develop near the kidneys   ovaries and testes  
🗑
testicles pass through abdonimal walls to the scrotum through   small canal (descend out)  
🗑
the small canal the testicles pass through is called   inguinal canal  
🗑
how does an inguinal hernia happen   if the inguinal canal does not close after testes drop, the small intestines may fall through  
🗑
what is the name of the tail of a sperm   flagellum  
🗑
what powers the sperm tail   mitocondria  
🗑
what are the 3 parts of a sperm   head, midpiece, tail  
🗑
where is mitochondria found in sperm   midpiece  
🗑
how does the sperm break through the barrier of the egg   sperm contain enzymes to digest through the wall.  
🗑
where is the DNA in a sperm   the head  
🗑
what are the 3 spongy tubes in penis   corpus cavernous (left & right) and corpus spongiosum  
🗑
what system causes arteries to supply blood to the penis to dilate   autonomic nervous system  
🗑
what system controls ejaculation   sympathetic nervous system  
🗑
how does the sympathetic nervous system control ejaculation   contracts smooth muscle around the glands, epididymis, vas deferens and urethra  
🗑
what causes ED   peripheral atherosclerosis  
🗑
what does viagra do   inhibits the enzyme involved in dilating blood vessels in the penis from releasing, keeping the vasculature in the penis constricted  
🗑
