Biology II Practice Test
 Ch 27: Reproduction and Embryonic Development   

Male Reproductive Anatomy & Physiology
_________________ = it carries semen and urine out of the body 
_________________ = contribute fructose to the sex cells 
_________________ = contributes activating fluid to the sex cells 
_________________ = holds the testes away from the body for proper sex cell production 
_________________ = produces the sperm, or male sex cell 
_________________ = storage site for the sex cells 
_________________ = a tube carrying the sperm from the epididymis to the urethra 
_________________ = add mucus to the sex cells 
_________________ = tissue that becomes engorged with blood so that it becomes rigid for copulation 
_________________ = the combination of sex cells and materials from the accessory glands 
_________________ = the production of sperm ... male sex cells.

Female Reproductive Anatomy 
______________ = where the fertilized egg embeds itself and develops into an embryo, and then into a fetus 
_________________ = the passageway for sperm (to enter the body) and the baby (upon leaving the body) 
_________________ = includes the mons pubis, labia majora and minora, and clitoris 
_________________ = there is one on each side of the uterus. They produce hormones as well as the eggs. 
_________________ = carries the egg from the ovary to the uterus 
_________________ = contain lobules which hold the milk-producing alveoli

Female Reproductive Physiology 
_________________ = the endometrium is sloughed off (day 1-5) of the uterine cycle 
_________________ = estrogen levels rise in the uterine cycle to get the body ready to accept a fertilized egg. 
_________________ = the final 2 weeks of the uterine cycle; endometrial vascularity increases. 
_________________ = infectious diseases spread via sexual contact. 
_________________ = is determined by the sex chromosomes. 
_________________ = when women stop menstruating 
_________________ = the production of eggs ... female sex cells. 
_________________ = the set of chromosomes that produce a male 
_________________ = the set of chromosomes that produce a female 
_________________ = the release of the egg at about day 14 
_________________ = follicles begin to mature in the ovarian cycle. 
_________________ = the ruptured follicle changes to corpus luteum and produces progesterone & estrogen 
_________________ = the time span where reproductive organs mature and become functional. 
_________________ = the male chromosome 
_________________ = the female chromosome 

What hormone _______? 
_________________________ 1. regulates the uterine cycle 
_________________________ 2. creates wider hips and larger breasts 
_________________________ 3. creates a deeper voice and broader shoulders 
_________________________ 4. stimulates the maturation of the female reproductive organs 
_________________________ 5. builds muscles
