Document Summary

Testis: make sperm: testes outside body because need lower temperature to produce sperm. Prostate gland: matures sperm cell: secretion: thin, milky fluid. Ductus (vas) deferens: transport sperm from testes to urethra (from site of production to site of release) Sperm go from epididymis to vas deferens, then from vas deferns to urethra. Urethra: carry sperm and urine to outside of body. Vagina (site where penis enters, where menstrual flow leaves body from uterus, and birth canal) Cervix: entryway to vagina (clamped most of time to keep stuff out) Ovary: shoots egg out and holds it. Fornix: area for expansion: 1 million at birth, 100,000 at puberty, about 30,000 by time 30. Uterine (fallopian) tube: egg gets fertilized here. Injured my external intercostals while trying to exhale. Diaphragm: main muscle of breathing: 2 types of tissue: smooth and skeletal, so have some control. Bronchus (#13 & #14 = primary bronchi): air tubes. Efferent arteriole (e for exit): takes blood out.
