Male reproductive organs

Glans penis

sexual stimulation, urination, ejaculation; contains erectile tissue; homologue to clitoris

Penis

delivers seaman to vagina and facilitates reproduction; contains erectile tissue; homologue is labia minora

scrotum

protect and cover some reproductive structures; homologue is labia majora

Testes

produces gametes and sec hormones (sperm)

Epididmyus

sperm are stored and transported; slight sperm maturation

spermatic cord blood vessels

supply blood, oxygen to testes

ductus deferens

transports sperm from epidymus to urethrae

ampulla of ductus deferens

reservoir for sperm and contributes to final compostion of seaman

seminal vesicle

produce fluids that will turn into seamen, 60 % fructose for energy and prostaglandin for sperm motility

Prostate gland

contributes to 25% of seaman, vitamin C + enzymes important for sperm function

Pubic symphysis

holds ledt and right pubic bones in place

bulbourethral gland

secretes mucin for lubricantion, lubricates spongey urethra for the passage of seaman; homologous is greater vestibular gland

corpus spongiosum

help make an erection and keeps urethra open

corpus cavernosum

makes an erection; blood vessels

cremaster muscle

regulates temperature of testes

seminiferous tubules

make sperm

ejactulary duct

transports seaman to urethra; bladder sphincter closes so you can’t pee while and ejaculate at the sametime

pubic symphysis

holds 2 sides of the pelvis together

mons pubis

protects reproductive organs

labia majora

protects and covers some reproductive organs (homologue is scrotum)

labia minora

protects clitoris and vaginal opening from dryness and irritation (homologue is penis)

clitoris

sexual stimulation (homologue is glans penis)

cervix

gateway between vagina and uterus, sperm entry, menstration

fornix

reservoir for semen after ejactulation, semen can liquify and more easily move

vagina

intercourse, birth and receives sperm

uterus

pregnancy, menstration, implantation, hormonal regulation

uterine tube

transports egg to uterus from ovary

ovary

produce oocytes and produce sex hormones (homologue is testes)

round ligament

anchors uterus anteriorly and maintains inverted position

greater vestibular gland

secretes mucus for vagina and vulva (homologue is bulburethral gland)

infundibulum

catch and channel released egg

frimbrae

projections wrap around ovary and catch released ovum

grandular alveoli

synthesize, secrete and store milk

lactiferous ducts

secrete milk to nipples
