The purpose of the Female Reproductive System The Female Reproductive System has several functions and plays a major role in a woman’s body. The ovaries produce the female eggs which are called the Ova or Oocytes. The Oocytes are transported to the Fallopian Tube which fertilization by sperm can occur. The fertilized egg then moves to the uterus, which the uterline lining has thickened in response to the normal hormones of the reproductive cycle. The fertilized egg in the uterus can implant into
Female Reproductive System The menstrual cycle is a natural recurring cycle of physiological (physical and psychological i.e., body and mind) changes in females of reproductive-age. The cyclic changes happen in the female reproductive system. First, in the ovaries, ovulation is marked by a breakdown in the wall of the follicle at the surface of the ovary. After ovulation, during the secretory phase, the theca cells and the granulosa cells in the mature follicle transform to produce significant amount
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES Female Reproductive Organ Mattison (2012) stated in his Introduction to Male and Female Reproductive Function the structure of the female reproductive system as follows: “the female reproductive system is controlled by components of the central nervous system, including the hypothalamus and pituitary. It consists of the ovaries, the fallopian tubes, the uterus, and the vagina”. The main focus of this study is the vagina. The vagina, defined by Hoffman
3. Spermatogenesis, Oogenesis, fertilization and implantation. Spermatogenesis, the origin and development of the sperm cells within the male reproductive organs, the testes. The testes are composed of numerous thin, tightly coiled tubules known as the seminiferous tubules; the sperm cells are produced within the walls of the tubules. Within the walls of the tubules, also,are many randomly scattered cells, called sertoli cells, that function to support and nourish the immature sperm cells by giving
The Great Dilemma Introduction: It is a very difficult task to find an individual, who has never ever heard about the dilemma of chicken and egg. Traditionally, this debate is originating from very old times. It is considered that several Greek philosophers, such as Aristotle and Plutarch [1], analyzed and set the question among one of the first people in the history. Although this problem was set in faraway Ancient Greece, its topicality is still on a very high level. Briefly, this antinomy discusses
by gram-negative bacteria that usually produce urinary tract infections (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas, Klebsiella, Proteus, Staphylococcus aureus, and Streptococcus faecalis.) The bacteria reach the urinary tract through the bloodstream and lymph system, or may be sexually transmitted (Neisseria
Structures of the male reproductive organ comprise; Scrotum –this structure is located outside the body, it is a loose pouch like sac of skin that hangs behind the penis. It contains many nerves, blood vessels as well as the testicles. The scrotum’s main function is to control the temperature of the testes to enable normal sperm development which requires rather cooler temperatures than that of the body. The scrotum has special muscles on the wall that allow it to contract and relax moving the testicles
Fertilization is an event that occurs when the female and male gametocytes Confluence. Fertilization starts when sperms enter the female reproduction system and meet the ovulated secondary oocyte. However, before the fertilization process, the gametocytes must go through the stage of maturity. So, how do sperms and oocytes mature? At first, let's talk about the maturation of sperms which is called "spermatogenesis". Spermatogenesis begins during puberty and continues throughout life. It starts by
Development Pelvic anatomy including organs of the female reproductive system The vaginal plate is a precursor to the inferior portion of the vagina; it is the growth of tissue that gives rise to the formation of the vagina, and is located where the solid tips of the paramesonephric ducts (Müllerian ducts) enter the dorsal wall of the urogenital sinus as the sinus tubercle. The plate's growth is unrestrained, as it significantly separates the cervix and the urogenital sinus; eventually, the central
The reproductive system is made up of the vagina, cervix, urethra, uterus, ovaries, and fallopian tubes. This paper will go in depth on these subjects.This paper will explain the function, details, and how to tell what is wrong. These reproductive systems are important to bring a healthy baby into the world. If any thing is wrong with any of these body parts something can go majorly wrong, which is why you need things such as pap smears. The first part of the system is the cervix. The cervix

1.1 Inguinal Hernia The inguinal canal is a passage in the anterior abdominal wall that in men carries the spermatic cord and in women it is called as round ligament of uterus. The inguinal canal is larger in size and more prominent in men compared to women.1 The inguinal canal is made up of two walls (anterior and posterior), a roof, and a floor. The anterior wall is formed by the aponeurosis of the external oblique and the posterior wall is formed by the transversalis fascia and also the roof

Thickened Endometrium The endometrium is the inner lining of the uterus. Its thickness varies with a woman’s age, reproductive stage and specific point of her menstrual cycle. A thickened endometrium may or may not be a normal finding, depending on various factors of a woman’s menstrual stage. To evaluate endometrial thickening, ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may be used. Part 1: Normal Endometrial Thickness in Menstrual Cycle The endometrium normally changes in thickness and appearance
The pistols also represent Hedda’s aristocratic and militant upbringing which influenced her to be a masculine and cold character, especially to those beneath her social standing. Hedda is also compared to the gun. She herself is a weapon, cold and calm until someone pulls her trigger. ‘Her steel-grey eyes express a cold, unruffled repose’ (Archer, 1928, 18). Furthermore, the pistols represent power and control, the obsessive quality in which her father possessed and she inherited. This is ironic
provides deeper insight to Ursula LeGuin’s short story, “She Unnames Them,” by expressing to readers the significance of names and relationships. Connell breaks down one of the main facets of masculinity, defining the idea of hegemonic masculinity as a system that enables the perpetual dominance of men and subordination of women in society. By applying this lens to “She Unnames Them,” one is able to recognize the significance that naming carries in a sense of power. In fact, Connell’s theory on masculinity
hormonal action. Hormones assume an authoritative part, preparing to carry on certainly once pubescence starts, and an activation part, alluding to changes in hormones amid youth that trigger behavioral and physical changes. The male regenerative system consists of six major hormones. Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone (GnRH) is for the most important part made in the preoptic range of the hypothalamus from where it goes to the pituitary organ where it animates the union and emission of the gonadotropins
Growth and development focusing on age group Growth and development of human is a continuous process which will proceed in an orderly manner throughout our life. The sequence of growth and development is predictable. Human at different age group will have different stages of growth and development. Generally, growth and development of human are divided to few stages in different age group which are prenatal, childhood, adolescence and adulthood. Prenatal stage is the first stages of human’s growth
Is There a Universal Concept of Human Beauty? Slim body, light skin tone and big eyes are generally considered as traits for beautiful male or female. These traits have almost always remained the same, if varied a little, worldwide and throughout the history. People around the world usually deploy a similar set of criteria when judging one's appearance. The way human beauty is defined seems to be fixed and following a certain trend. This essay will support the argument that there is a universal concept
Gender is it a concept or is it made apparent by our DNA when you are born or does it change as you grow older? Often gender is something that society defines at birth. According to society certain gender roles are pre established when we are born. The majority of society believes that if you are born to a specific gender you should adhere to the gender roles while other people believe that instead we may be born to a gender but it does not always decide if you are that gender. Science has proven
