Let's discuss overview of reproduction physiology.
Humans are made up of both male and female gender and each have their unique constitution or components. Because of this, we will be starting with components of both male and female and then go ahead to elucidate and expatiate their origins.
COMPONENTS OF THE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEMS
The reproductive system consists of;
1.the go**ds
2.the internal genitalia
3.the external genitalia
*The go**ds in males is made up of the te**is while in females is the ova
*The internal genitalia in males consists of ;the genitalia ducts and accessory glands.
* The internal genitalia in females consists of ; va**na, the two fallopian tube and the uterus.
* The external genitalia in males includes ;the p***s and the sc***um.
* The external genitalia in females consists ;the lower va**na,the labial majora and minora and the cl****is.
DEVELOPMENT OF THE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEMS.
THE GO**DS
The go**ds develop from the genitalia ridge.
This genitalia ridge is located near the adrenal gland and is made up of two parts;the cortex and the medulla.
In male genetics ,the cortex regresses or atrophy while the medulla persist to form the p***s
In female genetics,the medulla regresses while the cortex persist to form the ova.
THE INTERNAL GENITALIA
The internal genitalia develops from the woffian or mesonephric ducts and the mullerian or para mesonephric ducts.
In males ,the te**is descends from the posterior aspect of the abdominal cavity and move into the sc***um during the seventh month.
The interstitial cells of leydig produces testosterone which induces the mesonephric ducts to differentiate into the male internal genitalia.
The supporting cells of the te**is ,the Sertoli cells produces mullerian regression factor which causes the mullerian or para mesonephric ducts to atrophy or regress.
In females, because of the absence of testosterone and mullerian regression factor,the mesonephric ducts regresses while the mullerian ducts differentiate to form the female internal genitalia.
THE EXTERNAL GENITALIA
The external genitalia develops from the urinogenital sinus, genitalia tubercle, genitalia swelling and urethra sinus.
