Study Notes
Male Reproductive System
- Testes produce sperm and testosterone, essential for reproduction and development of male characteristics.
- The prostate gland secretes fluid that nourishes and protects sperm, contributing to semen composition.
Female Reproductive System
- The fallopian tubes (oviducts) serve as the primary site for fertilization of the ovum by sperm.
- The uterus is critical during childbirth, providing a nurturing environment for fetal development and facilitating delivery.
Hormonal Regulation
- Testosterone is the hormone that regulates male secondary sexual characteristics, including muscle mass, facial hair, and deepening of the voice.
