Chapter 39: Reproduction, Growth And Development By Mr. A. Rogan
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Introduction: • Male and female reproductive organs produce Sex cells (Gametes).
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Female sex cell called the ovum or the egg. • Produced in the ovary • Ovum – 0.1 mm long
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Male sex cells are Sperm. • Sperm are produced in the testis • Sperm – 0.01 mm long
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Zygote – When an egg and a sperm fuse they form a zygote. • Zygotes develop into a new individual.
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Fertilisation: • Fertilisation is the fusion (joining together) of an egg cell with a sperm cell.
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Male Reproductive Parts: • Sperm Duct • Penis • Testis • Scrotum • Prostrate Gland • Urethra
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Sperm Duct: • Carries Sperm from testis to urethra • Penis: • Releases sperm and passes into the vagina
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Testis: • Produces sperm and testosterone. • Scrotum: • Holds the testes and keeps them at the right temperature.
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Prostrate Gland: • Secretes fluid which help sperm to swim – Semen. • Urethra: • Carries sperm during intercourse and urine during excretion.
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Female Reproductive Parts: • Ovary • Neck of womb • Fallopian tube • Womb • Vagina
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Ovary: • Produces eggs and oestrogen • Neck of womb: • Cervix- entrance to the womb
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Fallopian Tube: • Carries the egg from the ovary to the womb • Womb: • Uterus – hold developing embryo
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Vagina: • Holds the penis during intercourse. • It is the birth canal, down which the baby passes.
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Puberty: • 10 – 15 years • Changes to body • Caused by hormones (body chemicals) • Now physically capable of having a baby.
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Changes To Body: • Male: • Voice Deepening • Underarm hair • Facial Hair • Sperm Production • Pubic Hair
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Changes To Body: • Female: • Underarm Hair • Breasts Develop • Widening Of Hips • Pubic Hair
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Menstrual Cycle: • 1 egg released from an ovary once a month – Ovulation. • Egg travels to the uterus
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Menstrual Cycle: • The uterus wall becomes thick and rich in blood vessels. • If unfertilized, the egg passes out via the vagina.
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Menstrual Cycle: • Menstruation – The uterus wall is now not needed so it breaks down and is also shed
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Menstrual Cycle: • This occurs once a month unless the egg is fertilised. • After 45 – 50 years of age, no more eggs are produced – Menopause.
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Intercourse: • 200,000,000 sperm released from a stiff, erect penis into woman's vagina (near cervix) – copulation.
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Fertilisation: • Sperm swim through cervix, up the uterus into the fallopian tubes. • If an egg is present fertilisation may occur.
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Even if no egg is present, sperm may live for 2 – 3 days in the woman's body. • Egg may live for 24 hours.
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Development Of Foetus: • Sperm + Egg = Zygote • Zygote divides many times to form ball of cells.
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • It travels to the womb. • The ball of cells (embryo) sticks to and sinks into the womb wall (full of blood vessels) – nourishment. • Implantation.
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • The embryo develops for 40 weeks in the womb.
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Family Planning: • Limiting and spacing the number of children a couple have.
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • How? • By using contraception: • Natural Methods – avoid intercourse around ovulation.
Chapter 45: Reproduction, Growth And Development • Artificial Methods • The pill – prevents ovulation • Condoms – Prevent sperm from reaching the egg
