  1. The Male & Female Reproductive Systems By Richard Upshaw and Callie Darroch

  2. → The bodily system of gonads, associated ducts, and external genitals concerned with sexual reproduction What is the Reproductive System?

  3. Female Reproductive Anatomy (external) Vulva: woman’s external genital area. Labia Majora: two folds of skin running from the mons pubis to below the vaginal opening Labia Minora: two smaller folds of tissue which lie just within the labia majora. Clitoris: a small, pea-shaped bump at the front of the labia that contains erectile tissue

  4. Female Reproductive Anatomy (internal) Vagina: passageway between the uterus and the outside of a woman’s body. Cervix: Opening from the uterus to the vagina. Uterus: place where the baby grows in a woman’s abdomen. Fallopian Tubes: two tubular structures leading from the ovaries to the uterus Ovaries: organs holding a woman’s eggs.

  5. Male Reproductive Anatomy (external) Penis: the organ of transfer of sperm to female. Scrotum: pouch-like sac holding both testicles in a separate compartment that hang underneath the penis. Testicles – Testes Gland: two glands in the male, located in the scrotum, which produce male hormones (testosterone).

  6. Male Reproductive Anatomy (internal) Sperm: the microscopic cells produced by the male’s testicles which can fertilize the female’s ovum. Prostate Gland: a man’s gland that helps make semen. Cowper’s Glands: behind the base of the penis which secretes fluid to make semen and neutralize acid during sexual excitement. Ejaculatory duct: a short straight tube that passes into the prostate gland and opens into the urethra

  7. Male Reproductive Anatomy (internal) • Urethra: a tube that connects with the vas deferentia to carry sperm cells out of the body. • Epididymis: the structure that forms a mass over the back and upper part of each testes. • Vas Deferens (singular): two tubes leading from the epididymis to the seminal vesicles. • SeminalVesicles: two pouch-like structures which serve to store mature sperm until ejaculated.
