opposites
-uncompensated respiratory acidosis= carbonic acid excess..carbon dioxide in blood

30. How is the secretion of testosterone regulated?
..hypothalamus detecdted through testes
31. *****Trace the path a sperm follows to exit the body.
..testes, epideminous, ductous, ejector, urethra (from notes: Ductus deferens and seminale vesicle go together to ejactory duct, Urethra****
32. Where is the site of vasectomy?
.. vas deferens
33. What are the accessory glands of the male reproductive system?
..
34. Describe the structure of the spermatic cord?
..muscle cremaste, blood vessels, nerves, vans deferens, etc..to elevate scrotum by temp. depending…( notes from class: Cremaster muscle helps lift penis and is temperature sensitive…needs lower tempuratures)
35. Describe the structure of the penis?
..look to diagram…3 columns of erectile tissue--filling of blood in tissue, glans penis is covered by foreskin=removal circumscision
36. How does an ovarian follicle develop?
