        Help!  

Question
Answer
the purpose of the reproductive system is to   show
🗑
show produce the germ cells, the testes & ovaries  
🗑
testes   show
🗑
show exocrine, sperm production ; endocrine testosterone production  
🗑
scrotum   show
🗑
show epididymis, ductus deferens, the ejaculatory duct & the urethra  
🗑
show elongated structure runnign up the posterolateral aspect of the testis & capping its uperior aspect; forms the first portion of the duct system & provides a site for immature sperm entering it from the testis to complete their maturation process  
🗑
ductus deferens/vas deferns   show
🗑
show a small incision made in each side of the scrotum & each ductus deferens is cut through or cauterized (sperm is still produced bu they can no longer reach the body exterior causes sterilization)  
🗑
show prostate gland, paired seminal vesicles & the bulbourethral glands  
🗑
seminal fluid is   show
🗑
seminal vesicles   show
🗑
what do they produce   show
🗑
prostate gland   show
🗑
bulbourethral glands produce   show
🗑
show buffers the sperm against the acidity of the female reproductive tract  
🗑
show paired dorsal cylinders  
🗑
corpus spongiousum   show
🗑
seminiferous tubules   show
🗑
interstitial cells   show
🗑
name the exocrine & endocrine product of the ovaries   show
🗑
ectopic pregnancy   show
🗑
what is it exactly that sloughs off periodically (about every 28 days)   show
🗑
this sloughing-off process is known as   show
🗑
show the ruptured follicle that is converted toa second type of endocrine gland ; it secretes progesterone (& some estrogens)  
🗑
show spermatic cord  
🗑
show amppulla; it empties into the ejaculatory duct  
🗑
show contraction of the ejaculatory duct propels the sperm through the prostate gland to the prostatic urethra wich in turn empties into the membranous urethra & then into the spongy (penile) urethra, which runs through the length of the penis to the body exte  
🗑
the penis is   show
🗑
what is it desigined to do?   show
🗑
what does it consits of   show
🗑
what is prepuce or foreskin   show
🗑
corpora cavernosa   show
🗑
show single ventral; surrounds the penile urethra  
🗑
show when the seminiferous tubules of each lobe converge to empty the sperm into another set of tubules; located at the mediastinum of the testis  
🗑
sperm traveling through the rete testis then enter the   show
🗑
show the mons pubis, the labia majora & minora, the clitoris, the urethral & vaginal orifices, the hymen & the greater vestibular glands  
🗑
show it is rounded fatty eminence overlying the pubic symphysis  
🗑
the labia majora   show
🗑
show enclose 2 smaller hair-free folds  
🗑
show vestibule; contains the clitoris, most anteriorly,followed by the urethral orifice & the vaginal orifice  
🗑
show the diamond-shaped region between teh anterior end of the labial folds, the ischial tuberosities laterally & the anus posteriorly  
🗑
show is a small protruding structure, homologous to the male penis (composed of highly sensitive, erectile tissue)  
🗑

🗑
show fimbriae  
🗑
show inflammations of the pelivc viscera  
🗑
