SECONDARY SEX
CHARACTERISTICS
• Are features that
appear during
puberty in humans.
These are particularly
evident in the
sexually dimorphic
phenotypic traits that
distinguish the sexes
of a species, but
unlike the sex organs,
are not directly part
of the reproductive
system.
 HUMAN
REPRODUCTIVE
SYSTEM
• organ system by
which humans
reproduce and bear
live offspring.
 EROGENOUS
ZONES
• An erogenous zone is an area of
the human body that has
heightened sensitivity, which,
when stimulated, may create a
sexual response such as
relaxation, thoughts of sexual
fantasies, sexual arousal and
orgasm.
 HUMAN SEXUAL RESPONSE
• The human sexual response to sexually arousing stimuli is a
motivational incentive-based cycle comprising subjective
experience and physiologic changes. Clinical and empirical data
support a circular model of overlapping phases of variable order.
Brain imaging data of sexual arousal identify areas of cerebral
activation and inhibition reflecting a complex network of
cognitive, motivational, emotional, and autonomic components.
