GenitoUrinary System

Male Reproductive System

- Testes produce male gametes
- Tunica albuginae lining of testes
- Specialized glands produce and release secretions that provide nutritive and lubricative elements
to semen:
a. Seminal vesicles
b. Prostate glands
c. Bulbourethral glands
- Sertoli cells it supports and protects the germ cells. It secretes inhibin and androgen-binding
protein
LH
Leydig cells
Testosterone
FSH
Sertoli cells inhibin and ABP
Female Reproductive System
Breasts
- Each gland has 15-25 lobes
- Intralobular ducts interlobular ducts
lactiferous sinus lactiferous duct
Graafian follicle
- Ampulla of oviducts region of fertilization
Urinary System
- Consists of paired kidneys and ureters and unpaired bladder and urethra

nipple

Uriniferous tubules continuous tubular structure with regional specializations that constitute the
functional unit of the kidney
- It consists of nephron and the collecting tubules
Nephron: RPLD!
Renal corpuscle

Proximal Convoluted Tubule

Loop of Henle

1. Renal corpuscle
Consists of Glomerulus and Bowmans capsule
1.1. Glomerulus where phagocytic cells are found
1.2. Bowmans capsule where podocytes are formed
2. PCT
Simple cuboidal epithelium
Abundant microvilli
3. Loop of Henle
Composed of simple squamous and simple cuboidal
Impermeable to water
4. DCT
Composed of simple cuboidal epithelium
Also impermeable to water
5. Collecting tubules
Lined by simple cuboidal epithelium
It connects to the DCT of the nephron

Distal Convulted Tubule

Papillary ducts of Bellini large collecting tubules with simple columnar epithelium

Juxtraglomerular apparatus
- Macula densa specialized cells of DCT
- Renin-Angiotensin Aldosterone System
