    Study Notes

    Reproduction and Development

    • Reproduction is the process by which organisms make more organisms; it's not essential for individual survival.
    • Human reproduction involves two types of sex cells, or gametes: sperm and egg (ovum).
    • Fertilization of the egg by sperm forms a zygote.
    • The zygote develops into an embryo and then a fetus.
    • Male and female reproductive systems are both essential for reproduction.
    • Genes, carriers of human traits, are passed down from parents to offspring, resulting in both similarities and differences between family members.

    Female Reproductive System Overview

    • The vulva is the external female reproductive organ, which includes the mons pubis, labia majora, labia minora, and clitoris.
    • The vagina is a muscular tube extending from the vaginal opening to the uterus.
    • The uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries are internal reproductive organs in females.
    • The ovaries produce, store, and release eggs, a process called ovulation.
    • The fallopian tubes connect the ovaries to the uterus.
    • The uterus houses a developing fetus.

    Male Reproductive System Overview

    • The external male reproductive organs are the penis, scrotum, and testes.
    • The penis is the male organ for sexual intercourse.
    • The scrotum houses the testes (also called testicles).
    • The testes produce sperm and testosterone.
    • The internal organs for reproduction in males include the vas deferens, ejaculatory ducts, urethra, seminal vesicles, and prostate gland.
    • The urethra plays a role in both urinary and reproductive functions.

    Sexual Reproduction

    • The gonads are sexual organs that produce gametes.
    • Male gonads are testes, producing sperm.
    • Female gonads are ovaries, producing egg cells.
    • The fertilized egg (zygote) undergoes development stages into an embryo and then a fetus.

    Menstrual Cycle

    • A cyclical process in women, releasing eggs for potential fertilization.
    • The menstrual flow occurs when there is no fertilization.
    • Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is common before the period.

    Pregnancy

    • A gestation period where a fetus develops inside the uterus.
    • The fertilized egg implants in the wall of the uterus, and the embryo grows into a fetus.
    • The process of childbirth has stages of labor and delivery.

    Childbirth Stages

    • Stage 1 is dilation, where the cervix opens.
    • Stage 2 is expulsion, where the baby is delivered.
    • Stage 3 is the delivery of the placenta.

    Aging and Reproductive Systems

    • Fertility varies from person to person, age does not precisely predict it.
    • Menopause is a natural aging process in women, where the menstrual cycle stops.
    • Aging can cause changes in the reproductive systems of both men and women.
