Outline Male Anatomy Female Anatomy Spermatogenesis Oogenesis
Menstrual Cycle Fertilization Pregnancy and Childbirth
4
Male Organs and tissues testes, seminiferous tubules, epididymis, vas deferens, seminal vescicle, prostate gland Hormones testosterone, FSH, LH Spermatogenesis production of mature sperm by meiosis
5
Male Anatomy
6
Male Anatomy Epididymis Seminal Vesicle Prostate Gland
Storage and maturation of spermatozoa Seminal Vesicle 60% of semen, high fructose content provides nourishment for sperm, alkaline Prostate Gland 25% of semen, high zinc content, alkaline, neutralizes acidic female tract
7
Epididymis
9
Testosterone Produced by cells in testes
Embryonic secretion causes development of male sexual organs Secretion levels rise with onset of puberty Secondary sexual characteristics Pubic hair, growth of skeletal muscles, etc.
11
Structure of Testis
12
Sperm Production Termed spermatogenesis, a meiotic division
Occurs in seminiferous tubules of testes Hormonal Control Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) / pituitary Stimulates first division of meiosis (2n -> n) Testosterone / testes Stimulates second division of meiosis Leutenizing Hormone (LH) / pituitary Stimulates secretion of testosterone
