I. HISTOLOGY: Review the slides of ovary and testes which you studied first with the endocrine system.
A. Ovary
1. Primordial follicles at or near outer surface of the ovary
2. Primary follicles containing primary oocytes surrounded by cuboidal
cells
3. Secondary follicles containing secondary oocyte and antrum
4. Graafian (or
vesicular) follicle
5. "Ovum" surrounded by zona pellucida and corona radiata
B. Testes
1. Seminiferous tubules (cross-section): round or oval structures with
lumen.
2. Germinal epithelium with spermatogonia at periphery of seminiferous
tubules
3. Interstitial cells
4. Spermatids near or in lumen
II. REPRODUCTIVE ANATOMY: Use the labeled diagrams and photographs in the text and lab atlas in order to identify the following structures on models and specimen available in the lab.
A. Review the latex models of the muscles of the pelvic floor. These were seen during the urinary system lab as you looked for the urethral orifice and sphincters. This time, look for the crura and three columns of erectile tissue in the penis on the male model; look for the labia majora and minora, vestibule, vaginal orifice, and clitoris on the female model.
B. On the female sagittal and frontal sections (torso parts and plaques) identify:
1. ovaries with ovarian
ligament

C. On the ovary model identify:
1. ovary with ovarian ligament
2. primordial follicle

5. antrum
6. vesicular (Graafian) follicle demonstrating ovulation
7. corpus luteum
8. corpus albicans
D. On the male sagittal
sections (torso parts and plaques) identify:
1. urinary bladder, rugae, trigone, ureters
2. urethra (prostatic, membranous, penile=spongy)
3. penis
a. corpora cavernosa
b. corpus spongiosum
c. glans penis
d. prepuce
4. scrotum
5. testes
6. rete testes
7. epididymis
8. vas (ductus) deferens
9. seminal vesicles
10. prostate gland
11. ejaculatory duct
12. bulbourethral glands
13. urogenital diagphargm
14. rectum, anal canal, anus
15. pubic symphysis
16. coccygeous group, levator ani, external and internal anal sphincters
17. mons pubis
III. EMBRYOLOGY ANATOMY: Use the labeled diagrams and
photographs in the text and lab atlas in order to identify the following
structures on models and specimen available in the lab.
A. On the fertilization/cleavage models identify:
1. first panel
a. primary oocyte in primordial follicle
b. secondary oocyte in secondary follicle
c. vesicular (Graafian) follicle
2. second panel
a. sperm (acrosome, head, body, tail)
b. secondary oocyte exhibiting fertilization
c. completion of meiosis II and formation of male and female
pronuclei
d. polar
body/bodies
e. zygote demonstrating first mitotic division
3. third panel: cleavage divisions
a. two-cell stage
b. morula (16-32-64 cell stage)
c. blastocyst
(1) trophoblast
(2) inner cell mass (embryoblast)
(3) blastocoel
d. gastrula
B. On the implantation model, identify:
1. Female reproductive
organs as above:
a. ovaries
b. uterine tubes with fimbria, infundibulum, and ampulla
