Document Summary

I. outcomes: compare and contrast asexual and sexual reproduction, what are the benefits and disadvantages of both, follow the formation of sperm from the testes to fertilization of the egg, structure and function, for the male reproductive system. Lh: by the end of reproduction, you should be able to compare and contrast the male and female reproductive systems, as well as cc spermatogenesis and oogenesis. Make sperm through spermatogenesis- process of sperm cell reproduction: 2. ) Deliver sperm to female reproductive tract: overall pathway for sperm is, testes (seminiferous tubules) -> epididymis -> vas deferens -> ejaculatory duct -> B. testes (singular testis: testes- make gonads (reproductive organs), two parts, 1. ) Seminiferous tubules- long hollow tube with small diameter that is the site of spermatogenesis: 2. ) Leydig cells- produce testosterone and other male sex hormones: between seminiferous tubules. D. scrotum: scrotum- skin-covered sac that contains testes and epididymis, functions, 1. )
