d/ GAMETE
a mature male or female germ cell usually possessing a haploid chromosome set and capable of initiating formation of a new diploid individual by fusion with a gamete of the opposite sex -- called also sex cell
d/ HAPLOID
having the gametic number of chromosomes or half the number characteristic of somatic cells
d/ DIPLOID
having the basic gametic chromosome number doubled
d/ SPERMATOGENESIS
meiosis that occurs in the testes
d/ OOGENESIS
meiosis that occurs in the ovaries
capsule outside the testes
d/ TUNICA ALBUGINAE
d/ the LOBULES of the testes
sections (like a grapefruit) of the testes
how many LOBULES are there?
250 or so each testes
d/ SEMINIFEROUS TUBULE
30' long tube inside lobule where spermatogenesis occur
d/ SPERMATOGENSIS
male version of gametogensis (by meiosis), male spermatogonia develop into mature spermatozoa
d/ INTERSTITIAL CELLS and ANDROGENS of seminerferous tubules?
surround tubules and secrete hormones called Androgens
d/ ANDROGENS
male sex hormones
d/ TESTOSTERONE
the main androgen responsible for inducing and maintaining male secondary sex characteristics
d/ SCROTUM
outside the body cavity that contain the testes
What is the most site for male Cancer?
Prostrate gland
Does PROSTRATE GLAND normally grow in size your entire life?

Squeezing urethra thus making urinating difficult
Would Dr treat prostrate enlargment in 50-60's and in 80-90's?
50-60 yes 80-90 no
Fx of PROSTATE GLAND
i1 - Secretes 50% of seminal fluid 2 - Makes semen alkaline
What is the benefit of the semen being alkaline?
Alkaline fluid makes semen more motile
How many columns of erectile spongy tissue are in Penis?
3
d/ PASSIVE HYPEREMIA
d/ PARASYMPATHETIC NS affect during errection?
during sexual excitement
1 mL of seminal fluid contains how many sperm cells
120 million
how much seminal fluid per ejaculation?
1-5 ml

LEss than 20 million
Menstraul Cycle is also called the __________?
Estracycle
d/ MENSTRUAL/ESTRACYCLE?
28 day cycle that involves regular
d/ 2 Layers of the uterus
stratum basilum and stratum functionalis
Which layer of the emdometrium does the fertilized egg bury itself?
Stratus Functionalis
d/ OVULATION
release of egg by the ovary
d/ MENSTRUATION
ireleae of ticked endometrial layer
What hormone is responsible for Menses?
Reduction in Progesterone level is responsible for Menses onset
d/ MENARCHY
1st period cycle at puberty
What hormones are responsible for the onset of Menarchy?
FSH and LH
d/ MENOPAUSE
iAt approx 45-50 yrs menstrual cycle ceases. This is due to lack of ovarian secretion called estrogen
MENSTRUAL CYCLE occurs in the ____________
while the OVARIAN CYCLE occurs in the ovaries
d/ OOCYTE
an egg before maturation
How many OOCytes does a baby girl have?
1000's
d/ FSH fx
In both males and females
d/ LUTEINIZING HORMONE
This 'LH surge' triggers ovulation hereby not only releasing the egg
d/ Day 1 of the Menstrual Cycle
little activity except FSH increases
d/ Day 1-5 of Menstrual Cycle
1 - Stratum Functioalis is lost 2 - FSH reaches peak 3 - primary follicle become 20 secondary follicles 4 - Estrogen increases (fr follicles)
d/ Day 6-13 pre-ovulatory phase
1 - one Graafian follicle will surviv 2 - Edometrium thickens due to estrogen 3 - FSH declines 4 - LH increases and peaks on day 12-13
d/ Day 14 Ovulation
Follicle releases egg an becomes Corpus luteum (yellow body) and secretes Progesterone (for 10 days)
Fx of PROGESTERONE
1 - maintain endometrium (no menstruation) 2 - Inhibit FSH (so wont start a new follicles)
d/ what Hormone is used for birth control
Progesterone b/c it stops menstruation
d/ day 14-24 if no fertiliation occurs
i1 - Corpus Luteum atrophies in 10 days (day 24) 2 - on day 24 Progesterone stops thf menstruation starts and FSH is secreted again
d/ day 19-24 if fertiliation does occur
1 - Implantation would occur 5-7 days after ovulation 2 - HCG (fr Chorion layer of blastocyte) fx to maintain Corpus Luteum for 3 months 3 - p/ 3m Placenta secretes Progesterone and Estrogen The correct answer is: None Of The Above
