Androgen secretion and sperm production Are both controlled by hypothalamic and pituitary hormones 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 Figure 46.14
Fertilization of an egg by a sperm, conception Occurs in the oviduct Figure 46.15a, b Ovary Uterus Endometrium From ovulation to implantation Endometrium Inner cell mass Cavity Blastocyst Trophoblast (a) Implantation of blastocyst(b) Ovulation releases a secondary oocyte, which enters the oviduct. 1 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 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 The blastocyst implants in the endometrium about 7 days after conception. 5
