caught the egg moves down the fallopian tube to reach the 4.___. If the egg is fertilized, it will implant
here into the 5.____ which is the innermost lining of the uterus. The neck of the uterus is known as the
6.____ which reaches into the vagina, also known as the birth canal. The vaginal walls contain numerous
folds called ___. The vaginal opening 7.____ is covered by inner lips known as the 8.____. The outer lips
of the vulva are known as the 9.____. ANS✔✔ 1. ovary
2. fimbria
3. Uterus
4. endometrium
,5. cervix
6. rugae
7. introitus
8. labia minora
9. labia majora
The shaft of the penis consists of three cylindrical structures. To distinguish between these it helps to
remember that the 1.__ runs through the 2.__. The 3.__ occurs as a pair and are located on top of the
corpus spongiosum. The corpora cavernosa and the corpus spongiosum are erectile tissues that engorge
with blood during sexual arousal causing an erection. Shortly after erection, pre-cum can be seen
exuding from the urethra. Pre-cum is produced by the 4.__ also known as Cowper's glands. The 5.__ are
housed in the scrotum. On the top of each testicle, you find the 6.__ , and mature sperm are stored here
prior to ejaculation. During ejaculation, sperm will travel from the epididymis through the 7.__ and pick
up fluids from the 8.__ , and from the 9.__. ANS✔✔ 1. urethra
2. corpus spongiosum
3. corpora cavernosa
4. bulbourethral glands
5. testicles
6. epididymis
7. vas deferens
8. seminal vesicles
9. prostate gland
The 1.__ are the site of sperm and hormone production housed by the 2.__ . Sperm production is
dependent on optimal temperature conditions, hence the testis location outside of the body. The
average scrotal temperatures in humans are typically 2.5 to 3 degrees Celsius lower than body
temperature (37 degrees Celsius). Spermatogenesis, which means the production of sperm, is most
efficient at 34 degrees Celsius. The shaft of the penis contains erectile tissues that engorge with blood
during an erection. The average 3.__ of a human penis in an unaroused flaccid state is 3.61 inches or 9.2
centimeters. With an erection, the shaft stretches to an average length of 5.16 inches or 13.1
centimeters. The 4.__ contains the numerous nerve endings and is the most sexually sensitive area of
,the penis. In a flaccid state, the foreskin covers the penile glans to protect its sensitivity. The rim of the
penile glans is known as the 5 ANS✔✔ 1. testis
2. scrotum
3. shaft
4. penile glans
5. corona
6. anus
7. rectum
The 1.__ contains numerous nerve endings and is the most sexually sensitive area with the sole purpose
of producing pleasure. The clitoris has no reproductive functioning (only pleasure!), the organ of
reproduction is the 2.__. The 3.__ is another area that contains numerous nerve endings and is a part of
the body's primary erogenous zones. Wrapped around the 4.__ you find the Skene's glands 5.__. The
Skene's glands develop from the same underlying tissue as the prostate gland and have the ability to
release fluid (sometimes a significant amount of fluid!) during orgasm. This is sometimes referred to as
squirting, gushing, "female" ejaculation. ANS✔✔ 1. clitoris
2. vagina
3. anus
4. urethra
5. Skene's gland
How long does it take to produce a human sperm ANS✔✔ 74 days
STDs like chlamydia or gonorrhea can cause something called pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). PID is
possible when the reproductive system opens into the abdominal cavity. Which system, the biological
male or the biological female opens into the abdominal cavity? ANS✔✔ the biological female
Semen is made up of fluids from which of the following structures? ANS✔✔ cowper's gland
prostate gland
, seminal vesicles
The vulva is a cover term and includes which of the following structures? ANS✔✔ mons pubis, clitoris,
labia majora, labia minora
The _____ are the hand-like structures at the end of the fallopian tubes. ANS✔✔ fimbriae

What is the purpose of the scrotum? ANS✔✔ to acts as a "climate control system" for the testes
