Sperm cells travel from the testis through the vas deferens, seminal vesicles, urethra and penis. Upon ejaculation, sperm enter the female reproductive tract through the vagina and cervix on their way to fertilizing an egg in the ovary. The male reproductive structures like the testis, vas deferens and seminal vesicles and the female structures like the ovaries, uterus, cervix and vagina all work together in the process of fertilization and reproduction.
Male and female reproductive systems assignment
- 1. Male and Female Reproductive Systems Assignment 1. Using the knowledge that you have just learned, describe the path of a sperm cell from the testis to an egg cell in the ovary, state the name of every structure that it passes on its journey, as well as the function of each structure (some of the words are filled in for you): 1. testis 2. 3. vas deferens 4. 5. 6. penis 7. 8. cervix 9. 10. ovary (egg cell) 2. For the next activity, put the word in bold in the middle of the space provided, then arrange all the words in ( ) around it (to create a “spider diagram”). Next, write a phrase beside each of the outside words to show the relationship between it and the word in the middle of your diagram. A. Penis (scrotum, semen, seminal vesicle, epididymis, testosterone, urethra, vas deferens)
- 2. B. Ovary (cervix, estrogen, follicles, follicle stimulating hormone, menstruation, progesterone, uterus, vagina) 3. Describe a similarity and a difference between each of the following sets of words: a. sperm and egg b. ovary and testis c. penis and vagina d. progesterone and testosterone e. breasts and deeper voice f. uterus and epididymis
