REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM

Cards (25)

  • GENATILIA: DESIGNED FOR THE PURPOSE OF INTERCOURSE
  • OVARY : ATTACHED TO THE UTERUS BY LIGAMENTS( TWO SOLID EGG SHAPED STRUCTURES)
  • OVA : THE FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE CELL ( LARGECT CELL IN THE FEMALE BODY)
  • ESTROGEN : IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SECONDARY SEX CHARACTERSITICS AND THE SEX DRIVE IN FEMALES
  • PROGESTERONE : BUILDS UP THE LINING OF THE UTERUS CALLED THE ENDOMITRIUM IN PREPARATION FOR THE FERTILIZED OVUM
  • OVULATION : WHEN THE EGG IS RELEASED FROM THE OVARY
  • FALLOPIAN TUBES : ALSO CALLED AS "oviducts". CARRIES THE EGG CELL TOWARDS THE UTERUS AND THE SPERM CELL TOWARDS THE EGG CELL
  • UTERUS : A HOLLOW MUSCULAR ORGAN, PROTECTS THE FETUS. IS LINED WITH THE ENDOMETRIUM
  • CERVIX : THE NECK OPENING OF THE UTERUS. A HEALTHY ONE IS THE STRONGEST MUSCLE IN THE BODY.
  • VAGINA : FEMALE ORGAN USED FOR INTERCOURSE, LEADS TO THE UTERUS
  • URETHRA : THE OPENING TO THE BLADDER
  • CLITORIS : A SMALL, PEA SHAPED BUMP AT THE FRONT OF THE LABIA
  • SCROTUM : A SAC-LIKE POUCH. CONTAINS THE TESTICLES AND REGULATES ITS TEMPERATURE
  • TESTICLES : PRODUCES SPERM AND THE MALE HORMONE( TESTOSTERONE ).
    THE MALE SEX GLAND. PRODUCES FOUR TO FIVE BILLION SPERM EACH MONTH.
  • TESTOSTERONE : THE MALE REPRODUCTIVE HORMONE MADE BY RHE TESTICLES.
  • SPERM : THE MICROSCOPIC CELLS PRODUCED BY THE MALES TESTICLES THAT CAN FERTILIZE THE DEMALES OVUM
  • EPIDIDYMIS : THE STRUCTURE THAT FORMS A MASS OVER THE BAC KAND UPPER PART OF THE TESTES. SPERM ARE STORED THERE FOR AS LONG AS SIX WEEKS
  • COWPERS GLAND : SECRETES A CLEAR AND STICKY FLUID THAT HELPS TO NEUTRALIZE THE ACCIDITY OF THE URETHRA
  • VAS DEFERENS : TWO THIN TUBES, SERVES AS A PASSAGEWAY FOR THE SPERM AND A PLACE FOR SPERM STORAGE
  • SEMINAL VESICLES : TWO SMALL GLANDS THAT SECRETES A FLUID THAT NOURISHES AND ENABLES THE SPERM TO MOVE
  • PROSTATE GLAND : SECRETES AN ALKALINE FLUID THAT NEUTRALIZES THE ACID FOUND IN THE MALE URETHRA
  • URETHRA : A TUBE WHERE SEMEN AND URINE PASSES THROUGH
  • PENIS : THE MALE ORGAN USED FOR INTERCOURSE
  • SEMEN : A COMBINATION OF FLUID THAT IS PRODUCED BY THE GLANDS. THIS FLUID NOURISHES AND HELP THE SPERM MOVE THROUGH THE URETHRA
  • EJACULATION : THE PASSAGE OF SPERM FROM THE PENIS
