Nurture offspring ​
Produce hormones ​

5. 1. Sexual Reproduction Sexual Reproduction=sperm fertilizing egg
Puberty:
Cannot reproduce until after puberty
Hormones: LH (luteinizing hormone), FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone)

6. 2. Female Reproductive System
Functions
Produces eggs (ova)
Provides place for baby to develop.
Menstruates if fertilization doesn’t occur
Produces estrogen

7. Estrogen Female (cont.) Hormone that causes:
1. female sex characteristics
2. Develops eggs
3. Keeps the reproductive cycle on track

8. 5 major parts of the female reproductive system
Female (cont.)
5 major parts of the female reproductive system
Ovaries
Fallopian tubes
Uterus
Cervix
Vagina

10. Ovaries Eggs are produced and mature. Produces Hormones

11. Fallopian Tubes
Tunnel for egg to travel to uterus.
Site of Fertilization
Fertilized egg moves to uterus and attaches to wall= pregnancy

12. Home to a developing fetus.
Uterus
Hollow, muscular organ
Home to a developing fetus.

13. Cervix Allows sperm to enter menstrual blood to exit
Leads to the vagina.

14. Vagina
Birth canal
Canal that joins the cervix) to the outside of the body

16. 3. Male Reproductive System
Main Function:
Produce sperm to be delivered to the FALLOPIAN TUBE, where an ova is fertilized

17. Male (cont.) Males produce sperm after puberty
Testes (testicles) produce sperm
Testosterone is the hormone for:
Sperm production
male sex characteristics

18. Male (cont.) Consists of: A pair of testes Scrotum
A network of excretory ducts
epididymis
ejaculatory ducts
vas deferens
Seminal vesicles
Prostate
Urethra
Penis

20. Testes / testicles (Gonads)
Produce sperm
Spermatogenesis
Produce testosterone

21. Regulates testes temperature.
Scrotum –
Regulates testes temperature.

22. Duct System: (3 parts) Epididymis Where sperm mature.
Ejaculatory ducts
empty into the urethra.
Vas Deferens
Transports mature sperm to the urethra.

23. Seminal vesicles
Produce semen a sugar-rich fluid that provides energy to sperm.
Attached to vas deferens

24. Prostate Gland
Mix semen and sperm before entering the urethra.

25. Urethra
Tube that carries urine from the bladder to outside of the body
Also carries semen out of the body

26. Penis
external organ, assists in the transfer of gametes to mate.
