Reproduction

Sexual reproduction
• Involves 2 events: Meiosis + Fertilization• Meiosis produces Haploid (1/2 Chromosomes)
Gametes, specialized for:– 1) Motility (sperm)– 2) Nutrient storage (eggs)
• Fertilization unites haploid gametes from two individuals– Restores diploid in offspring– New combinations of genes in offspring = unique

The Male Reproductive System• Testes: sperm and
testosterone production• Epididymus: sperm
maturation (~18 hrs.); motility
• Vas Deferens: storage, Leads sperm from scrotum into abdominal cavity, thru glands, and around bladder
• Glands: add seminal fluids – Cowper's Gland – Prostate- add fructose
(carbohydrate) – Seminal vesicles- add
alkaline fluids (semen) • Urethra• Penis• bulbourethral glands-
lubricants

In the Testes:
• Spermatogenesis• each testis is divided into about 250 compartments, each
packed with coiled seminiferous tubules which produce the sperm cells. Interstitial cells (between the tubules secrete testosterone)
• Semeniferous tubules contain 2 types of cells:• 1) Spermatogenic (sperm-producing) cells:• 2) Sertoli cells (nourish & support developing cells)

• 1st stage: "spermatogonia" (diploid): proliferate continuously by mitosis--> some differentiate into --> 2nd stage: "Primary Spermatocytes"
• => 1st meiotic division (Now Haploid)
• 3rd stage: "secondary spermatocytes"
• => 2nd meiotic division• 4th stage: "spermatids“,
mature into"spermatozoa" (sperm cell)

Sperm diagram
• Tail • Neck • Head • axial filament• Mitochondria (in sheath)• Nucleus• Acrosome (contains
enzymes to penetrate egge membrane)
• Axial filament contains 9+2 array of microtubules (typical of cilia and flagella)

Ejaculation• a. Erection of the Penis
– erectile tissues: • 2 Corpus Cavernosa • 1 Corpus Spongiosum
– fill with blood
• b. Ejaculation– Mechanoreceptor stimulation causes reflexive nerve arc to
smooth muscles which propels semen thru tract, up vas deferens, into urethra.
– 3-4 ml per ejaculation; only 10% is actually sperm cells (300-400 billion)

The Role of Hormones in the Male
• Androgens-produced in testes and adrenal cortex
• Testosterone-– sperm production– secondary sex characteristics – aggression
• Under control of Secretion from Pituitary:– LH -> testosterone – FSH -> acts on Sertoli cells
![Page 9: The Continuity of Life: Reproduction Chapter 46 Campbell & Reece](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062423/5697bf881a28abf838c89501/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The Female Reproductive System• 2 ovaries (3 cm each)
– Outer layers form oocytes (immature egg cells)
• 2 oviducts (Fallopian tubes)
• Uterus• Cervix• Vagina• outer stuctures: labia,
clitoris
![Page 10: The Continuity of Life: Reproduction Chapter 46 Campbell & Reece](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062423/5697bf881a28abf838c89501/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
• primary oocytes already forming in fetal female; reach prophase of 1st meiotic division
• secondary oocytes continue meiosis at sexual maturity + polar body ("extra" cytoplasm-not fertile)
• grow, mature• ovulation (released from
ovary)• produces 2nd meiotic division
(occurs after fertilization)• = OVUM and one additional
polar body
![Page 11: The Continuity of Life: Reproduction Chapter 46 Campbell & Reece](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062423/5697bf881a28abf838c89501/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Ovulation• Oocytes develop near surface of
ovary and are surrounded by special cells– Called "ovarian follicle“,
comprised of oocyte, follicular cells
• During ovulation, the follicle ruptures and releases the 2nd degree oocyte
• Follicle secretes Estrogens (grows Endometrium)
• The follicle then enlarges and forms the Corpus Luteum "yellow body" which increases levels of progesterone to maintain pregnancy.

Fertilization • Secondary oocyte (egg)
is "swept" into fallopian tubes by cilia.
• Then, egg is propelled by waves of muscle contractions down the oviducts.
• Oocyte breaks down after 72 hours.
• Fertilization takes place in oviducts
• The fertilized egg will reach uterus in 3 days.

Female Hormonal Controls• Controlled by
Hypothalamus– GnRH, which triggers
pituitary…• Pituitary Gland—releases--
>LH, FSH which triggers…• Ovaries----> Estrogens +
Progesterone• Under "feedback control
system”
