Female Reproductive System Anatomy Quiz

The primary oocyte undergoes meiotic division to mature and contain 23 chromosomes for fertilization.

Ovulation is regulated by female sex hormones, occurring every menstrual cycle.

Only one matured follicle is released, leading to a single oocyte for potential fertilization.

Post-ovulation, the follicle remains and grows, forming corpus luteum, which prepares the endometrium for a fertilized oocyte.

The male reproductive system includes the testes, epididymis, vas deferens, seminal vesicles, and prostate.

Spermatogenesis occurs in the seminiferous tubules within the testes, producing sperm and decreasing in efficiency after age 35.

Sexual response cycle consists of four stages: excitement, plateau, orgasm, and resolution.

Fertilization occurs when the oocyte, containing 23 chromosomes, meets the 23-chromosome sperm in the fallopian tube.

Amniotic sac forms a membrane around the fetus, containing amniotic fluid for nutrient exchange.

Pregnancy is marked by implantation of the embryo and growth of the placenta, which provides essential hormones and nutrients for the developing fetus.

Childbirth occurs between 37 and 42 weeks, involving the dilation of the cervix and the delivery of the baby and placenta.
