- Match the responses stimulated by hormones in the male reproductive system with the hormone given below that stimulates the response. Stimulates the release of FSH and LH Stimulates the development of the sex organs, starting at puberty, and promotes gamete formation Maintains the male reproductive system in adulthood; develops and maintains male secondary sexual characteristics; increases muscle mass and aggressive behaviour Produced by Sertoli cells in males; inhibits FSH production in a negative feedback loop Stimulates the interstitial cells to produce and secrete testosterone LH FSH Testosterone GnRH Inhibinarrow_forwardDuring puberty, our reproductive systems undergo significant changes. What triggers the onset of puberty? Describe the involved hormones. In the past, estrogen and testosterone were blamed for puberty-related mood swings. What do we know now about hormones and brain growth that helps us understand the changes?arrow_forwardWhat are the causes of differences between male and female reproductive behaviors? Do males always have higher reproductive potential? Why are females choosier than males?arrow_forward
- Which hormone promotes sperm production and secondary sex traits in males? A) Progesterone B) Calcitonin C) Testosterone D) Epinephrinearrow_forwardAs males and females age they produce lower volumes of sex hormones. For women, taking testosterone to increase libido in becoming more common. Why is the same not common for males?arrow_forwardAfter learning about the reproductive systems, how would advise a couple with following concern: "If we do not want a baby for next two years, how can we calculate the safe sex period?" She shares that her cycle is regular but not standard 28 days long cycle (so the standard explanation form different sources won't work unless you think critically)! At what time of the female cycle is she most likely to prevent fertilization of her ovulated egg? Consider the fact that her cycle is not 28 days but longer or shorter (you pick). Do males have any time (in their cycle- if any) when their gametes would not be able to fertilize the egg? In other words when can intercourse lead to least chance of pregnancy? Feel free to check with your older friends, doctors, nurses, or anyone who you feel comfortable talking about this.arrow_forward

List all the structures of the male reproductive system.arrow_forwardhow to make sperm (spermatogenic) and how does the hypothalamus control it?arrow_forwardWhere does progesterone come from and what maintains the production of progesterone?arrow_forward

What is the function of testosterone? What is the function of FSH and LH on the testes and ovaries? What hormone released from the Hypothalamus stimulates the release of FSH and LHarrow_forwardWhat hormone feeds back to the hypothalamus so that only one follicle will reach maturity?arrow_forwardLH and FSH normally do which things? O A) inhibit estrogen and progesterone production by the uterus B) inhibit estrogen and progesterone production by the pituitary C) stimulate estrogen and progesterone production by the ovaries D) They have no effect on estrogen or progesterone production. E) stimulate estrogen and progesterone production by the pituitaryarrow_forward
