Reproduction hormones-secreting organ, target, fx *Hormone chart*
Divisions of pituitary glands, hormones secreted by each
Anterior Pituitary (adrenohypophysis)
GH-Growth Hormone
Prolactin
ACTH-Adrenocorticotropic hormone
FSH-Follicle-stimulating hormone
LH-Luteinzing hormone
Posterior Pituitary (neurohypophysis)
ADH-Antidiuretic hormone
Oxytocin
Structures of Male & Female Reproductive Organs
Males:
Vas Deferens
Urethra
Penis
Glans Penis
Prepuce (foreskin)
Seminal Vesicle
Ejaculatory duct
Prostate Gland
Bulbourethral Gland
Epididymis
Testis
Scrotum
Female:
Ovary
Uterus
Endometrium
Myometrium
Perimetrium (epimetrium)
Cervix
Vagina
Fallopian Tube
Production of Sperm
1. Testes
2. Epididymis
3. Vas deferens
4. Seminal Vesicle
5. Prostate gland
6. Bulbourethral gland
7. Urethra
8. Penis
9. Chromosome, #, gender determination
10. Zygote: 46 chromosomes (23 from egg, 23 from sperm)
11. Gender is determined at conception by the sperm (x&y)
12. Congenital vs. Hereditary Disease
Congenital Disease: conditions are present at the time of birth
Hereditary Disease: genetically transmitted
13. Mechanism of the Birth Control Pill
14. Is a pharmacological agent that contains estrogen & progesterone. As the blood levels of estrogen & progesterone increase, negative feedback inhibits the secretion of FSH by the anterior pituitary. This process prevents ovulation, no egg means no baby.
15. Endocrine Glands & Hormones secreted by each
16. Each gland are ductless glands, they secrete hormones directly into the blood and not into ducts
Pituitary Glands-GH, Prolactin, ACTH, FSH, LH, TSH, ADH, oxytocin
Hypothalamus-releases a releasing hormone
Pineal Gland-melatonin
Thyroid –calcitonin, Thyroxin (T4), Triiodothreonine (T5)
Parathyroid-parathyroid hormone
Thymus-thymosin
Adrenals-epinephrine, norepinephrine, aldosterone, cortisol
Ovaries-estrogen & progesterone
Pancreas-insulin & glucagon
Testes-Testosterone
