Study Notes

Male Reproductive System Components

  • Urinary Bladder: Hollow organ that stores urine until excretion.
  • Symphysis Pubis: Anterior part of the pelvic girdle that supports the pelvic structure.
  • Vas Deferens: Tube that transports sperm from the testes to the penis for ejaculation.
  • Seminal Vesicle: Gland that produces a fluid that nourishes sperm and makes up part of semen.
  • Ejaculatory Duct: Passage that links the seminal vesicles with the urethra, facilitating semen delivery.

Glands and Their Functions

  • Prostate Gland: Located below the bladder; adds alkaline fluid to semen, enhancing sperm viability.
  • Bulbourethral Gland: Situated beneath the prostate; secretes a pre-ejaculatory fluid that lubricates the urethra.

Reproductive and Excretory Tubes

  • Urethra: Duct that carries urine out of the bladder and semen during ejaculation.
  • Anus: The external opening of the anal canal, important for the body's waste elimination.

External Male Anatomy

  • Penis: Main external reproductive organ that houses the urethra for urine and semen expulsion.
  • Epididymus: Coiled structure on the back of each testis where sperm mature and are stored.
  • Glans Penis: The sensitive tip of the penis, crucial for sexual arousal and stimulation.
  • Prepuce (or Foreskin): Skin covering the penis, can be removed in circumcision.
  • Testis: Male reproductive gland responsible for producing sperm and testosterone.
  • Scrotum: External pouch that contains and protects the testes, helps regulate their temperature.
