Histology
The production of gametes (sperm or egg) through meiosis
Gametogenesis
The main purpose of the reproductive tract
To produce offspring/survival of species
This structure is responsible for producing sperm and testosterone
Testes
Sperm is typically produced through this process
Spermatogenesis
The site for menstruation, implantation of a fertilized ovum, and development of fetus during pregnancy
The Uterus
The three layers of the uterus
Endometrium, Myometrium, and Perimetrium
This structure fastens the uterus to the ovary
Ovarian Ligament
This gland provides nourishment for the sperm
Prostate gland
Specialized tissues which aid in the production of milk through lactation
Mammary glands
Consists of four phases:
Golgi Phase, Cap Phase, Formation of the Tail, and Maturation
Spermiogenesis
This structure produces secondary oocytes for fertilization
Ovaries
The structure that is responsible for spermatogenesis
Seminiferous Tubules
The second part of the uterine tube and is found between the infundibulum and isthmus
Ampulla
This structure neutralizes acids within the penile urethra
Bulbourethral (Cowper's) glands
The three divisions that the uterus is subdivided in
Fundus, Body, Cervix
The pathway sperm travels during spermatogenesis starting with the seminiferous tubules and ending at the external urethral orifice
Seminiferous Tubules, Head of Epididymis, Body of Epididymis, Tail of Epididymis, Ductus Deferens, Ejaculatory Duct, Prostatic Urethra, Membranous Urethra, Penile Urethra, External Urethral Orifice
This is the site where an ovum implants itself
