Male Reproductive System

1.) Rectum - acts as a temporary storage site for feces.

2.) Seminal vesicles – secrete a viscous alkaline liquid with a high sugar, protein,
prostaglandin content, which helps the sperm to move

3.) Ejaculatory duct - serve as route for the seminal fluid to be drained into the urethra.
They don’t have any secretion of their own.

4.) Prostate gland - secrete a thin, alkaline fluid, which, when added to the secretion from
the seminal vesicles, further protects sperm by increasing the naturally low pH level of
the urethra.

5.) Anus - control the expulsion of feces, unwanted semi-solid matter produced during
digestion.

6.) Bulbourethral gland - supply one or more source of alkaline fluid to help ensure the
safe passage of spermatozoa

7.) Bulb of penis -

8.) Epididymis - responsible for conducting sperm from the tubule to the vas deferens; final
maturation of cells occur in the epididymis.

9.) Testis – contains Leydig cells that produce testosterone, the primary male sex hormone;
and seminiferous tubule that produces spermatozoa.

10. ) Prepuce - primary covering for the glans and inner mucosal lining.

10.) Glans penis –- sensitive to touch and temperature; and is the center of sexual arousal
and orgasm in a man

11.) Urethra – passageway for both urine and male reproductive fluids

12.) Corpus cavernosum -


13.) Corpus spongiosum

14.) Symphysis pubis –

15.) Urinary bladder - storage of urine

16.) Vas deferens - carries sperm from the epididymis through the inguinal canal into the
abdominal cavity, where it ends at the seminal vesicles and the ejaculatory ducts below
the bladder
Female Reproductive System

1.) Mons veneris – protect the junction of the pubic bone from trauma.

2.) Clitoris - sensitive to touch and temperature; and is the center of sexual arousal and
orgasm in a woman

3.) Urethral orifice –

4.) Labia minora – unite over the clitoris to form a fold of skin called prepuce.

5.) Labia majora - serve as protection for the external genitalia; they shield the outlets to
the urethra and vagina.

6.) Clinical Perineum - area between thighs; skin and muscle of this region can tear during
childbirth, to prevent the tearing, an incision called episiotomy is sometimes made in
the clinical perineum

7.) Anus - control the expulsion of feces, unwanted semi-solid matter produced
during digestion.

8.) Bartholin gland – secretes mucus, which lubricates the area during sexual intercourse.

9.) Skene gland – secretes mucus that lubricate sand maintains the moist vaginal
environment.

10.) Vaginal orifice – external opening of the vagina

11.) Hymen – covers the opening to the vagina


12.) Vaginal vestibule – contains several openings, openings to the bladder (the urethra)
and the uterus (the vagina).
