Senior Final Review Sheet- Reproductive portion
Chapter 16
1. alveoli- secretory sacs of the mammary glands
2. amnion- embryonic membrane that surrounds and protects fetus; fluid filled
3. blastula- embryonic phase from about 4-6 days where cells form hollow ball; stage after morula; stage before gastrula
4. bulbourethral (Cowper’s) gland- produces main alkaline fluid of semen to protect sperm from urethra and vaginal fluid
5. capacitation- functional change sperm undergo in female reproductive tract; takes about 10 hours
6. chorionic villi- embryonic membrane that eventually becomes part of placenta
7. cremaster muscle- pulls testes into body when cold; lowers testes away from body when hot
8. ductus (vas) deferens- cut in a vasectomy; after epidydimus; before ejaculatory duct
9. ectoderm- embryonic germ layer that becomes skin and nervous system
10. embryo- fertilization to month 2; morula, blastula, and gastrula are stages
11. endoderm- embryonic germ layer that may become epithelial lining
12. endometrium- inner layer of uterus; sloughed off during menstruation
13. epidydimus- duct in which sperm mature; after efferent ducts; before epidydimus
14. fetus- months 2-9; all have blue eyes
15. fructose- sugar source for sperm
16. gamete- spermatazoon and ova; also called sex cells or germ cells
17. gastrula- embryonic stage where germ layer develop; after blastula stage
18. gestation- period from fertilization to birth; on average 266 days in humans
19. gonads- testes and ovaries; organs that produce gametes; produces estrogen in women and testosterone in men; considered both endocrine and exocrine glands
20. implantation- when blastocyst attaches to endometrium; usually occurs around day 6
21. mammary gland- part of female reproductive tract that produces milk for newborn
22. mesoderm- embryonic layer that may become muscle or connective tissue
23. morula- first stage of embryonic development; zygote divides into ball of cells
24. oogenesis- production of egg cells; second division doesn’t occur until after fertilization
25. oxytocin- hormone that induces labor
26. placenta- hormone producing organ found only in pregnant woman; made of endometrium and chorion; structure responsible for diffusing oxygen and nutrients into fetal blood; alcohol, some viruses, and drugs can pass through but microorganisms usually cannot; not an embryonic membrane
27. progesterone- hormone that gets uterus ready for pregnancy and maintain pregnancy; hormone receptors blocked with RU-486
28. prolactin- hormone that initiates milk production in mammary glands
29. prostate gland- produces acidic part of semen that includes enzymes for capacitation
30. reproduction- process by which new individuals produced and genetic information passed on
31. scrotum- supportive structure of testes
32. secondary oocyte- what oogonium divides and develops into; what is ovulated from follicle
33. seminal vesicles- produces largest portion of semen; produces fructose in semen
34. spermatogenesis- production of sperm
35. uterine (Fallopian) tubes- where fertilization usually occurs; contain cilia that create a current to carry ovum from ovaries to uterus; produces peristaltic contractions to carry ovum from ovaries to uterus
36. uterus- pathway for sperm; menstrual site; site of implantation
37. Y chromosome- determines sex of baby; if present, fetus will develop male; delivered by sperm (male determines sex of baby)
38. yolk sac- embryonic membrane that feeds early embryo
39. zygote- fertilized egg
