BELL WORK:Copy the question and your answer
Which of the following correctly describes an interaction that occurs between two body systems that helps a rabbit outrun a pursuing coyote?
A. The skeletal system releases additional calcium, and the circulatory system retains more sodium in the blood to provide muscles with ions for contraction.
B. The digestive system increases the rate of digestion, and the excretory system ceases to provide tissues with more nutrients.
C. The respiratory system increases the breathing rate, and the circulatory system increases blood pressure to provide tissues with more oxygen.
D. The endocrine system releases hormones that prepare the immune system to deal with possible injuries.
CO: I will examine and describe how the reproductive system interacts with other systems.
LO: I will finish my vocabulary project. I will write notes and talk
with a partner.
Vocab Project – 20 minutes
• Make sure you have followed all directions!– ANALOGY: (Vocab word) is like (NOT-a-vocab word)
because (explanation).– LINEAR ARRAY:
(Vocab word) – word – word – word – word – (Vocab word)
– JEOPARDY GAME: should include HINTS or EXAMPLES, not definitions!!
– SHORT STORY/BOOK: should include COLOR– CONCRETE SPELLING: should include COLOR– There should be NO definitions copied OR re-worded
from your vocab list!!!
•Sexual Reproduction–In humans, the reproductive system produces, stores, and releases specialized sex cells known as gametes. –Gametes are released to create the fusion of sperm and egg to form a zygote, the single cell from which all cells of the human body develop.
Sexual Reproduction
Sexual Development
• Puberty is a period of rapid growth and sexual maturation during which the reproductive system becomes fully functional.
• When puberty ends, reproductive organs are fully developed.
• Puberty usually begins between the ages of 9 and 15, and usually starts one year earlier in females than in males.
Reproduction HormonesHormone: Produced by: Function:
Testosterone Testicles Triggers male sex traits
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)
Pituitary Stimulates egg/sperm development
Stimulates estrogen
Luteinizing hormone (LH) Pituitary Stimulates Testosterone
Regulates the release of egg, corpus luteum, progesterone
Estrogen Ovaries Triggers female sex traits
Progesterone Corpus luteum Maintains Uterus lining
The Male Reproductive System
• Function of the male reproductive system: To produce & deliver sperm
The Male Reproductive System• A sperm cell consists of:
• a head, which contains the nucleus
• a midpiece, which contains energy-releasing mitochondria
• a flagella, which propels the cell forward
Head
Nucleus
Midpiece
Mitochondria
Tail
Diseases and Disorders of the Male Reproductive System
Disease/Disorder DescriptionProstate cancer Most common form of cancer in men over
40; risks of developing it increase with age
Prostatitis Inflammation of the prostate gland; may be acute or chronic
Testicular cancer Malignant growth in one or both testicles; more common in males 15–30 years; more aggressive malignancy
The Female Reproductive System• Functions of the female reproductive system:
1. To produce eggs2. To nourish and support a developing embryo
• Ovaries: primary reproductive organs– The ovaries are located in the abdominal cavity.
The Menstrual Cycle• Menstrual cycle: when an egg develops and is
released from an ovary– The uterus is prepared to receive a fertilized egg. – If the egg is fertilized, it is implanted in the uterus and
embryonic development begins. – If the egg is not fertilized, it is discharged.
• The menstrual cycle is controlled by internal feedback mechanisms between the reproductive system and the endocrine system. The cycle takes an average of 28 days.
The Menstrual Cycle
*Most females menstruate during the first 3-7 days of the cycle.

Diseases and Disorders of the Female Reproductive System
Disease/Disorder Description
Breast cancer Second leading cause of cancer deaths in women; classified as stage 0 to 4
Cervical cancer Slow to develop; Pap smear detects abnormal cervical cells
Cervicitis Inflammation of the cervix usually due to an infection
Dysmenorrhea Condition with severe menstrual cramps limiting normal activities
WITH YOUR PARTNER…
•Complete the cloze passage at the end of your notes.
•Write a summary of the passage – this does NOT mean that you just re-write the paragraph! A summary EXPLAINS THE MEANING.
