    Study Notes

    • 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.
