MALE REPRODUCTIVE
SYSTEM
Prepared by:
MARICARR G. DEL MUNDO

2. SEXUAL
REPRODUCTION
• A process by which the
egg cell nuclei and the
sperm cell are brought
together through
fertilization

3. THE MALE
REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM

4. PARTS
• TESTES OR TESTICLES
-oval bodies consisting of
fine tubules enclosed in a
tough, fibrous sheath

5. GONADS

6. SEMINIFEROUS TUBULES
• Produce sperm cell or
spermatozoa
EPIDIDYMIS
• Mass of tubes along the sides
of the testes
• Temporary storage place of the
sperm

7. VAS DEFERENS
• It receives the sperm, carries
them up and delivers them into
the urethra
SEMINAL VESICLE
• A gland that produce part of the
seminal secretion

8. SCROTUM
• A bag or pouch which kept the
testes cooler than the body
temperature
• Made up of involuntary muscle
fibers as part of the skin that make
the scrotum draw up when chilled
and hang down when heated

10. PROSTATE GLAND
• Produces a thin, watery,
alkaline secretion that mixes
with the sperm cell and other
secretion to form the semen
COWPERS GLAND
• located together with the
prostate gland near the upper
end of the urethra

11. PENIS
• A mass of erectile tissue (blood
spaces surrounded by fibrous
case) arranged in three columns
FORESKIN OR PREPUCE
• A loose skin ends in a fold which
covers the sensitive head of the
penis

12. TESTOSTERONE
• Male sex hormone
• Controls the development of
secondary sex
characteristics, making a man
feel and look like a man

14. THE HUMAN SPERM
CELL (spermatozoa)

15. MAJOR PARTS
1.Head
2.Neck
3.Connecting piece
4.Tail

16. • When the sperm
penetrates an ovum
during fertilization the tail
separates from the rest of
the sperm, the head and
the connecting piece
enter the ovum and the
zygote is formed

17. The ovum and the sperm cell
