3 Reproductive System Common general structure and function can be identified between the systems in both sexes Common general structure and function can be identified between the systems in both sexes Systems are adapted for development of sperm or ova followed by successful fertilization, development, and birth of offspring Systems are adapted for development of sperm or ova followed by successful fertilization, development, and birth of offspring Sex hormones in both sexes are important in development of secondary sexual characteristics and normal reproductive system activity Sex hormones in both sexes are important in development of secondary sexual characteristics and normal reproductive system activity

4 Male Reproductive System Organs are classified as essential or accessory Organs are classified as essential or accessory Essential organs of reproduction are the gonads (testes), which produce sex cells/gametes (sperm) Essential organs of reproduction are the gonads (testes), which produce sex cells/gametes (sperm) Accessory organs of reproduction Accessory organs of reproduction Ducts - passageways that carry sperm from testes to exterior (examples: epididymis, vas deferens) Ducts - passageways that carry sperm from testes to exterior (examples: epididymis, vas deferens) Sex glands - produce protective and nutrient solution for sperm Sex glands - produce protective and nutrient solution for sperm External genitals (penis) External genitals (penis) Foreskin of the penis is also called prepuce Foreskin of the penis is also called prepuce

5 Male Reproductive System Testes are the gonads of men Testes are the gonads of men Structure and location Structure and location Testes in scrotum—lower temperature Testes in scrotum—lower temperature Covered by tunica albuginea, which divides testis into lobules containing seminiferous tubules Covered by tunica albuginea, which divides testis into lobules containing seminiferous tubules Interstitial cells produce testosterone Interstitial cells produce testosterone

6 Male Reproductive System Functions include the production of testosterone and sperm Functions include the production of testosterone and sperm Spermatogenesis is the process of sperm production Spermatogenesis is the process of sperm production Normal sperm production requires 3 degrees below body temperature Normal sperm production requires 3 degrees below body temperature Sperm precursor cells called spermatogonia (stem cells for sperm) Sperm precursor cells called spermatogonia (stem cells for sperm) Meiosis produces primary spermatocyte, which forms four spermatids/mature sperm cells with 23 chromosomes each Meiosis produces primary spermatocyte, which forms four spermatids/mature sperm cells with 23 chromosomes each The mature sperm cell has an elongated tail which allows it to “swim” through the female reproductive tract The mature sperm cell has an elongated tail which allows it to “swim” through the female reproductive tract Head contains genetic material Head contains genetic material acrosome The nucleus of a sperm cell is covered by a specialized structure that has lytic enzymes that are capable of penetrating the ova called acrosome The midpience of the sperm contain mitochondria, which provide energy The midpience of the sperm contain mitochondria, which provide energy

32 GROWTH & DEVELOPMENT

33 Pregnancy What occurs between ovulation and the implantation of the fertilized egg into the uterus? What occurs between ovulation and the implantation of the fertilized egg into the uterus? At ovulation, an ovum is released from the ovary and begins its journey through the uterine tube At ovulation, an ovum is released from the ovary and begins its journey through the uterine tube While in the tube, the ovum is fertilized by a sperm to form the single-celled zygote While in the tube, the ovum is fertilized by a sperm to form the single-celled zygote After a few days of rapid mitotic division, a ball of cells called a morula is formed After a few days of rapid mitotic division, a ball of cells called a morula is formed After the morula develops into a hollow ball called a blastocyst, implantation occurs After the morula develops into a hollow ball called a blastocyst, implantation occurs

42 Infancy Infancy is considered the period from birth to 18 months Infancy is considered the period from birth to 18 months LUCAS GABRIEL

43 Childhood Childhood ranges from the end of infancy until sexual maturity/puberty (age 12- 14 in girls, 14-16 in boys) Childhood ranges from the end of infancy until sexual maturity/puberty (age 12- 14 in girls, 14-16 in boys)

44 Adolescence & Adulthood Average range of adolescence is 13-19 years Average range of adolescence is 13-19 years Adulthood is what we refer to from the age of 20 years and onwards Adulthood is what we refer to from the age of 20 years and onwards The following developmental changes are not completed until early to middle adulthood: The following developmental changes are not completed until early to middle adulthood: Maturation of bone Maturation of bone Closure of growth plates Closure of growth plates Sinus formation Sinus formation

45 What are the effects of aging? There is a degeneration of bones and joints in particular which may restrict movement There is a degeneration of bones and joints in particular which may restrict movement Skin becomes dryer, thin and less elastic. Pigmentation changes and hair loss are also common. Skin becomes dryer, thin and less elastic. Pigmentation changes and hair loss are also common. Reduced function of the urinary system overall Reduced function of the urinary system overall Renal mass decreases Renal mass decreases Between ages of 30 and 75 the number of nephron units in the kidneys decrease by almost 50% Between ages of 30 and 75 the number of nephron units in the kidneys decrease by almost 50% Respiratory capacity decreases Respiratory capacity decreases Brain mass decreases Brain mass decreases Cardiac output at rest decreases Cardiac output at rest decreases Nerve conduction speed decreases Nerve conduction speed decreases
