Chapter 16: Human Reproduction
2
Identify the organs of the male and female reproductive systems. Label a diagram
3
Seminal vesicle (Rectum) Vas deferens Ejaculatory duct Prostate gland Bulbourethral gland (Urinary bladder) (Pubic bone) Erectile tissue of penis Urethra Glans penis Prepuce Vas deferens Epididymis Testis Scrotum External – scrotum & penis Internal – gonads produce sperm & hormones - testes – packed with highly coiled seminiferous tubules - accessory glands that help sperm move: - seminal vesicles - bulbourethral glands - prostate gland male reproductive tract:
4
Erectile tissue of penis Prostate gland (Urinary bladder) Bulbourethral gland Vas deferens Epididymis Testis Seminal vesicle (behind bladder) Urethra Scrotum Glans penis sperm pathway during ejaculation: epididymis vas deferens ejaculatory duct sperm count during ejaculation: 2 – 5 mL of semen per ejaculation x 50 – 130 million sperm per mL 100 – 650 million sperm per ejaculation
5
female reproductive anatomy Glans (Rectum) Cervix Vagin a Bartholin’s gland Vaginal opening Ovary Oviduct Labia majora Labia minora (Urinary bladder) (Pubic bone) Uterus Urethra Shaft Prepuce Clitoris External – clitoris & 2 sets of labia which surround the clitoris & vaginal opening Internal – pair of gonads (ovaries) with ducts & chambers for gametes & fetus
6
Vagina Uterus Cervix Ovaries Oviduct Uterine wall Endometrium Follicles Corpus luteum Ovaries – contain many follicles Follicle – formed before birth - egg cell surrounded by follicle cells - nourish & protect the egg - produce estrogens - Endometrium – inner lining of uterus - After ovulation, “egg” falls down the oviduct into uterus
7
Table meetings 1.What are the endocrine and exocrine products of the testes? 2.What is the composition of semen and the glands that produce it? 3.Trace the pathway followed by a sperm from the testis to the body exterior. 4.Describe the functions of the vesicular follicle and corpus luteum of the ovary. 5.Describe endometrium, myometrium and ovulation. 6.Trace the pathway an egg takes from ovary to the body exterior.
8
Table meetings 1.What are the endocrine and exocrine products of the testes? 1.Endocrine products – testosterone 2.Exocrine products – sperm and semen
9
Table meetings 2. What is the composition of semen and the glands that produce it? Fructose from seminal vesicles Prostate gland releases milky fluid Bulbourethral glands releases clear mucus 3. Trace the pathway followed by a sperm from the testis to the body exterior. Testis epididymis vas deferens urethra out
10
4. Describe the functions of the vesicular follicle and corpus luteum of the ovary. Vesicular follicle – develops the egg in an ovary Corpus luteum – follicle left after egg is released, develops the lining of the uterus for fertilized egg 5. Describe endometrium, myometrium and ovulation. Endometrium – lining of the uterus Myometrium – middle layer of uterus, muscular Ovulation – release of an egg from an ovary.
11
6. Trace the pathway an egg takes from ovary to the body exterior. Ovary fallopian tube uterus cervix vagina out
12
Chapter 16: Animal Reproduction 2 ways animals reproduce: -Asexual – mitosis – same genes as parent -Fission – separation of a parent into 2 -Budding – individuals split as an outgrowth from an existing one -Some cnidarians -Fragmentation – breaking of the body into several pieces followed by regeneration -Sponges, cnidarians, tunicates -Sexual – fusion of haploid gametes -Motile sperm swims to non-motile egg -Increases genetic variability
13
2 types of sexual reproduction: 1.External – eggs shed by female & fertilized by male in wet environment -Courtship behaviors involved -Pheromones used 2. Internal - sperm deposited in or near female reproductive tract & fertilized within female -Fewer zygotes but more parental care -Embryo develops in reproductive tract
14
Figure 46.5 External fertilization Eggs
15
Parthenogenesis: -Process - an egg develops w/o fertilization -Produces haploid adults who produce eggs without meiosis -Daphnia (water flea), bees (male drones), wasps, ants
16
Figure 46.3 Sexual behavior in parthenogenetic lizards Time Ovary size Hormones Behavior Ovulation Progesterone Estrogen Female- like Male- like Female- like Male- like (a)Both lizards in this photograph are C. uniparens females. The one on top is playing the role of a male. Every two or three weeks during the breeding season, individuals switch sex roles. (b)The sexual behavior of C. uniparens is correlated with the cycle of ovulation mediated by sex hormones. As blood levels of estrogen rise, the ovaries grow, and the lizard behaves like a female. After ovulation, the estrogen level drops abruptly, and the progesterone level rises; these hormone levels correlate with male behavior.
17
after ejaculation: Prostaglandins in semen thin mucus at the uterus opening, stimulates uterine contractions helps semen move up uterus Semen (slightly alkaline) neutralizes vagina (slightly acidic) -Protects sperm/increases motility -Initially sperm - coagulated -become liquefied so can swim
18
Viagra: -Promotes action of nitric oxide (NO) -enhances relaxation of smooth muscle in blood vessels of penis so blood can enter erectile tissue
19
Formation of “eggs”: - Oogenesis Ovary Primary germ cell in embryo Differentiation Oogonium in ovary Mitotic division Primary oocyte, arrested in prophase of meiosis I (present at birth) Completion of meiosis I and onset of meiosis II Primary oocyte within follicle Secondary oocyte, arrested at meta- phase of meiosis II First polar body Ovulation Entry of sperm triggers completion of meiosis II Ovum Growing follicle Mature follicle Ruptured follicle Ovulated secondary oocyte Corpus luteum Degenerating corpus luteum 2n2n 2n2n n n n n Second polar body Follicles grow in response to FSH completing meiosis I & stopping at metaphase II Smaller polar body is discarded Secondary oocyte is ovulated…NOT AN EGG Meiosis is completed IF 2 nd oocyte is fertilized After ovulation, remaining tissue reorganizes to form the corpus luteum
20
Epididymis Seminiferous tubule Testis Cross section of seminiferous tubule Sertoli cell nucleus Lumen of Seminiferous tubule Spermatogonium Primary spermatocyte (in prophase of meiosis I) Secondary spermatocyte Early spermatids Spermatids (at two stages of differentiation) Differentiation (Sertoli cells provide nutrients) Meiosis II Meiosis I completed Mitotic division, producing large numbers of spermatogonia Sperm cells Acrosome Nucleus Mitochondria Neck Tail Plasma membrane HeadMidpiece 2n2n 2n2n n n n nnn n n n n Differentiation and Onset of meiosis I Formation of sperm - Spermatogenesis Seminiferous tubules – produce sperm Leydig cells – secrete testosterone/other androgens Sertoli cells – provide nutrition for spermatids so they can mature - Takes 65 – 75 days to make sperm - 20 days to travel to epididymis -mature & are stored
21
differences b/t spermatogenesis & oogenesis: Unequal cytokinesis in oogenesis produces 1 haploid ovum (& 2 polar bodies) Equal cytokinesis - 4 haploid sperm Spermatogenesis meiosis occurs throughout males life post puberty, ovary has all its follicles at birth Oogenesis - long resting periods spermatogenesis is uninterrupted & continuous
22
hormonal control of the menstrual cycle:

Menopause – cessation of ovulation & menstruation because ovaries lose responsiveness to LH & FSH & estrogen decreases
26
hormonal control of male reproductive system: - GnRH, FSH, & LH
27
Figure 46.14 Hormonal control of the testes Stimuli from other areas in the brain Hypothalamus GnRH from the hypothalamus reg- ulates FSH and LH release from the anterior pituitary. FSH acts on the Sertoli cells of the seminiferous tubules, promoting spermatogenesis. LH stimulates the Leydig cells to make testosterone, which in turn stimulates sperm production. Anterior pituitary Negative feedback Leydig cells make testosterone Primary and secondary sex characteristics Sertoli cells Spermatogenesis Testis
28
pregnancy tests: -HCG – human chorionic gonadotropin -Mimics LH which keeps corpus luteum secreting estrogen & progesterone -Endometrium stays thick

Fig 46.15 Formation of the zygote and early post-fertilization events Ovary Uterus Endometrium From ovulation to implantation Endometrium Inner cell mass Cavity Blastocyst Trophoblast Ovulation releases a secondary oocyte, which enters the oviduct. 1 The blastocyst implants in the endometrium about 7 days after conception. 5 Cleavage continues. By the time the embryo reaches the uterus, it is a ball of cells. It floats in the uterus for several days, nourished by endometrial secretions. It becomes a blastocyst. 4 Fertilization occurs. A sperm enters the oocyte; meiosis of the oocyte finishes; and the nuclei of the ovum and sperm fuse, producing a zygote. 2 Cleavage (cell division) begins in the oviduct as the embryo is moved toward the uterus by peristalsis and the movements of cilia. 3 (a) Implantation of blastocyst(b) Inner cell mass – develops into embryo & extra-embryonic membranes
