menstruation

what does corpus luteum secrete

progesterone

what does ovarian follicle produce

estrogen

primary sex organ (male)

testes

male gamete

sperm

where is the sperm produced

semenifurious tubules

sertoli cells function

support sperm by giving nutrients

leydig cells function

produce hormone called testosterone

where does sperm mature

epididymis

all located in the testes

seminifurous tubules (sertoli cells here)

sertoli cells

leydig cells

epididymis

glands that help in formation of semen

seminal vesicle

prostate gland

bulbourethral (cowpers) gland

what is the master gland

pituitary gland

main gland that controls all other organs/hormones in the body)

pituitary gland parts

anterior pituitary

posterior pituitary

hormones in the anterior pituitary

GH

TSH

ACTH

Prolactin

LH

FSH

LH & FSH together known as

gonadotropins

GH hormone (somatotropin)

growth hormone

promotes protein synthesis, lipid and carbohydrate metabolism, and bone and skeletal muscle growth

TSH hormone (thyrotropin)

thyroid stimulating hormone

stimulates the thyroid to secrete its hormones

ACTH

adrenocorticotropic hormone

stimulate adrenal cortex to produce cortisol

stimulates the adrenal cortex to secrete corticosteroids

prolactin

stimulates milk production in females

LH (luteinizing hormone or Gonadotrophins )

main hormone for secretion of estrogen, progesterone in females

the secretion of testosterone by the testes in males

for ovulation

FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone)

used for stimulating follices

stimulates the production of eggs in the ovaries of females

stimulates sperm in the testes of males

hormones in the posterior pituitary

oxytocin

ADH (vasopressin)

oxytocin

contracting uterus in birth

stimulates contraction of the uterus during childbirth and triggers the release of breast milk during lactation

ADH (antidiuretic hormone or vasopressin)

acts on the kidneys to reduce urine volume and prevent dehydration

water reabsorption by the kidneys so it prevents dehydration

thyroid gland produces

calcitonin (triggers the deposition of calcium in the bone)

T3 (triiodothyronine)

T4 (thyroxine)

parathyroid gland produces

PTH (parathyroid hormone)

calcitonin secreted by thyroid gland - increases?

increases bone absorption of calcium

reduces calcium levels in the blood

PTH (parathyroid hormone) - function (increase, decrease)

increases bone reabsorption

increases calcium levels in blood

decreases phosphorous levels in the blood

pineal gland

Produces melatonin

needed for sleep

adrenal medulla hormones

epinephrine

norepinephrine

fight or flight hormones

adrenal cortex hormones

aldosterone - maintains blood volume

cortisol - increases carbohydrates and protein metabolism

sex steroids - androgen, estrogen, testosterone

adrenal glands - two parts

located on top of each kidney

adrenal medulla (inner portion)

adrenal cortex (outer portion)

pancreas - has both endocrine & exocrine functions

endocrine function: produces hormones

exocrine function: produces enzymes

endocrine function - in pancreas

hormones of pancreas produced by Islets of Langerhans (pancreatic islets)

Contain three types of cells: alpha cells, beta cells, and delta cells

alpha cells of islet of langerhan: produce glucagon

beta cells of islet of langerhans: produce insulin

alpha cells secrete glucagon - function

stimulates the liver to start gluconeogenesis, releasing glucose into the bloodstream between meals

Beta cells secrete insulin - function

stimulates cells to absorb glucose and amino acids after eating

what maintains blood sugar level

Alpha cells – glucagon

beta cells – insulin

Delta cells secrete somatostatin - function

inhibits the release of both glucagon and insulin when not needed, as well as the release of growth hormone

pancreas cells that secrete hormones are called

islets of langerhans

pancreas cells that produce digestive enzymes are called

acinar cells

parts of upper respiratory tract (outside thoracic cavity)

nasal cavity

nasopharynx

oropharynx

laryngopharynx

parts of the lower respiratory tract (inside thoracic cavity)

Trachea

Lungs

bronchi

bronchioles

alveoli sacs

alveoli ducts

diaphragm

function of nasal cavity

cilia helps retract pathogen

air gets warmed and moistened

structures of nasal cavity

nasal septum

conchae

cilia

oropharynx

main tonsils called palatine tonsils

adenoid

pharyngeal tonsils

Epiglottis

covers the glottis

the epiglottis is a flap on top of the glottis that prevents the food from entering the larynx.

trachea has

c shaped cartilage

they help the trachea but also allow it to move and flex

bronchial tree (primary - secondary)

Trachea branches into the primary (right and left bronchi) at the carina

Primary bronchi branch into secondary bronchi that go to each lobe of the lung

Secondary bronchi branch into tertiary bronchi

Tertiary bronchi branch into bronchioles

Bronchioles divide to form alveolar ducts

Alveolar ducts lead to alveolar sacs

alveoli sacs - alveoli ducts

where exchange of gases take place

surfactants

prevents collapsing of alveolar sacs
