Female Anatomy

• This structure will produce excess mucus during estrus to flush out bacteria

• Vagina

Female Anatomy

• This is where fertilization of the egg by sperm occurs.

• Oviduct (or fallopian tube)

Male Anatomy

• These are the cells of the male reproductive tract that actually produce the sperm

• Sertoli Cells

Male Anatomy

• These cells produce testosterone • Leydig Cells

Male Anatomy

• This protects sperm from degradation by the blood

• Blood Testis Barrier

Male Anatomy

• This is where sperm is matured• Epididymus

Male Anatomy

• This gland adds fluid that provides energy for the sperm cells

• Seminal vesicle

Repro Hormones

• This hormone is released by the corpus luteum and prevents estrus from occurring if the cow is pregnant

• Progresterone

Repro Hormones

• This hormone produces most of the physical characteristics associated with estrus

• Estrogen

Repro Hormones

• This hormone creates a new follicle during each estrus cycle so that a mature egg is ready at each ovulation

• FSH

Repro Hormones

• This hormone is released from the hypothalamus and causes the release of all other reproductive hormones

• GnRH

Repro Hormones

• This hormone ends an estrus cycle• PGF2α

Diseases & Disorders

• This is the term for a growth on the reproductive tract that affects the primary hormone-producing organ?

• Ovarian cyst

Diseases & Disorders

• What is the term for when the vagina is physically separated from the uterus, causing infertility?

• Blind cervix (or closed cervix)

Diseases & Disorders

• This is an infection of the uterus• Metritis

Diseases & Disorders

Hormone Therapies

• PGF2α is the main component of this treatment used for ending an estrus cycle

• Lutalyse

Hormone Therapies

• This treatment prolongs estrus so that all cows can be bred on the same day.

• CIDR

Hormone Therapies

• This treatment enables a producer to cause a cow to come in heat on a specific day.

• Ovsynch

Hormone Therapies

• These are the two hormones used in Ovsynch• GnRH and PGF2α

Hormone Therapies

This & That

• This is a gland that secretes a substance into a bodily fluid

• Endocrine Gland

This & That

• This is any organ that absorbs a hormone in question

• Target Tissue.

This & That

• 6-10 weeks

This & That

• Along with amino acids and protein, this is a possible precursor used by the body to make hormones

• This is the structure that forms from the follicle on the ovary after the egg is released

• Corpus luteum

FINAL JEOPARDY

• Make your wagers!

• What are the two kinds of messenger systems in the body and why are two needed?

• Nervous system and endocrine system; one is for short term responses and one is for long term responses.
