MALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM- ANATOMY

1. FINC NURSING
CHOACHING AGRA
MALE REPRODUCTIVE
SYSTEM

2. INTRODUCTION-
• CONSIST OF A NUMBER SEX ORGANS
THAT ARE A PART OF THE HUMAN
REPRODUCTIVE PROESS .
• PRODUCES , STORES AND RELEASES THE
MALE GAMETES OR SPERM

3. FUNCTIONS-
• TO PRODUCE SPERM AND PROTECTIVE
FLUID(SEMEN)
• TO DISCHARGE SPERM WITHIN THE FEMALE
REPRODUCTIVE TRACT
• TO PRODUCE MALE SEX HORMONES

4. EXTERNAL ORGAN-
• PENIS
• SCROTUM

5. PENIS-
• IS A CYLINDRICAL PENDANT ORGAN LOCATED
ANTERIOR TO THE SCROTUM .
• CONSIST OF THREE COLUMNS OF ERECTILE
TISSUE THAT ARE WRAPPED IN CONNECTIVE
TISSUE AND COVERED WITH SKIN
• THE SINGLE , MIDLINE VERTEBRAL COLUMN
SURROUND THE URETHRA AND IS CALLED
THE CORPUS SPONGIOSUM

6. PART OF PENIS-
• URETHRA
• GLANS
• PREPURA
• FORSKIN

7. FUNCTION-
• TRANSFER SPERM TO VAGINA

8. SCROTUM -
• A POUCH OF SKIN FORMED FROM THE LOWER
PART OF THE ABDOMINAL WALL.
• SAC OF SKIN AND MUSCLE THAT THE HANGS
OUTSIDE THE ABDOMINAL CAVITY HOLD THE
TESTES
• TWO SETS OF MUSCLES MAINTAIN TESTICULAR
TEMPRATURE -
– DARTOS (A LAYER OF SMOOTH MUSCLE DEEP TO
THE SKIN
- CREMASTER (SMOOTH MUSCLE SURROUNDING
THE TESTES)

9. INTERNAL GENITAL ORGANS-
• TESTIS
• EPIDIDYMIS
• VAS DEFERENS
• ACCESSORY GLAND
• SEMINAL VESICLES
• PROSTATE GLAND
• BULBOURETHRAL GLAND

10. TESTES-
• ORGANS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE
PRODUCTION OF –
- MALE SEX STEROID HORMONE TESTESTERONE
-SPERM
TESTES ARE THE TWO OVAL SHAPED MALE
ORGANS THAT PRODUCE SPERM AND
HORMONE TESTESTERONE
EACH TESTES IS MADE OF TIGHTLY COILED
STRUCTURE CALLED SEMINIFEROUS TUBULES

11. EPIDIDYMIS-
• THE EPIDIDYMIS IS A COMMA SHAPED
STRUCTURE LOCATED ON THE TOP AND
BEHIND EACH TESTIS INSIDE IN THE
SCROYUM
• THE EPIDIDYMIS TRANSPORTS THE SPERM AS
THEY MATURE

12. VAS DEFERENS-
• THE VAS DEFERENS IS A THIN TUBE THAT
STARTS FROM THE EPIDIDYMIS TO THE
URETHRA IN THE PENIS
• THEY TRANSPORT SPERM FROM THE
EPIDIIDYMIS IN ANTICIPATION OF
EJACULATION

13. SEMINAL VESICLES-
• SEMINAL VESICLES LIE JUST BEHIND THE
BLADDER AND BETWEEN THE RECTUM AND
THE BLADDER .
• THEY PRODUCE A STICKY YELLOWISH FLUID
THAT CONTAINS FRUCTOSE

14. PROSTATE GLAND -
• THE PROSTATE GLAND SURROUNDS THE
EJACULATORY DUCTS AT THE BASE OF
THEURETHRA , JUST BELOW THE BLADDER
• THE PROSTATE GLAND IS RESPONSIBLE FOR
MAKING THE PRODUCTION OF SEMEN , A
LIQUID MIXTURE OF SPERM CELLS ,
PROSTATE FLUID AND SEMINAL FLUID

15. BULBOURETHRAL GLANDS-
• THESE GLANDS PRODUCE A CLEAR , SLIPERY
FLUID THAT EMPTIES DIRECTLY INTO THE
URETHRA.
