Diagram:
Be able to label male and female reproductive systems, sperm, testes, Oogenesis, &
spermatogenesis.
Male Reproductive System:
1. What structure is the site for sperm maturation?
2. What 4 structures contribute to the semen volume?
3. Know the path the sperm travels from the testes to the penis.
4. The fold of skin that covers the tip of the penis is called?
5. Three regions of the penis?
6. Know the components that make up this system (i.e. testes, scrotum, prostate gland, etc.).
7. What are the functions of testosterone?
8. What hormones are in the male system and what do they do? What hormone stimulates production of
testosterone?
Female Reproductive System:
1. Know the pathway of the ovum.
2. Where does fertilization occur?
3. Where does implantation occur?
4. What triggers menstruation?
5. Define amenorrhea.
6. Know the components that make up this system (i.e. uterus, uterine tube, vagina, etc.)
7. What is the average length of the menstrual cycle? When would does ovulation occur in the cycle?
8. What are the functions of the vagina?
9. Define menopause.
10. Know the hormones for the female that were discussed in class. What happens when the LH hormone
surges?
11. What are the functions of estrogen?
Gamete Production:
1. Know the steps of oogenesis and spermatogenesis. Be able to diagram each and identify the cells at each
stage of the process.
2. What is the stem cell called for oogenesis and spermatogenesis?
3. What are the end products of each process?
4. Know the # of chromosomes start with and # end with after meiosis complete?
5. Compare and contrast mitosis and meiosis (like worksheet).
6. What is a polar body?
7. Spermatogenesis produces how many viable sperm? Oogenesis produces how many polar bodies and
ovum?
8. Which cell in oogenesis is ovulated? When is meiosis I & II completed in oogenesis?
Gestation:
1. What is the difference between the formation of identical and fraternal twins?
2. Be able to identify the order & name, label cell of gestation diagram? Identify major structures?
3. Explain the difference between embryo & fetus?
4. When is a zygote first called an embryo?
5. How does the fertilized egg get nourishment before placenta is formed?
6. What is the function of the fluid that surrounds the embryo?
Use Your Worksheets, Text, Notes, and Diagrams to study for test.
