25. Describe the structures and locations of the glans penis, crus, bulb, and prepuce.
The penis is the male organ through which sperm cells are transferred from the male to the female. The penis contains three columns of erectile tissue. Engorgement of this erectile tissue with blood causes the penis to enlarge and become firm this process is called erection. Two of the erectile columns form the dorsum and sides of the penis and are called the corpora cavernosa. The third column, the corpus spongiosum, forms the ventral portion of the penis. It expands to form a cap over the distal end of the penis. The spongy urethra passes through the corpus spongiosum, penetrates the glans penis, and opens as the external urethral orifice. At the base of

The epididymis, a small coiled tube, is located next to the testes, and is continuous with the sperm duct.

This complex organ can be found in upper right side of the abdomen. It is unique because it is a dual functioning organ. The first function is to control the body’s blood sugar level. The second function is to secrete insulin and glucagon. Lastly, I studied the testes of the fetal pig, which I found at the end of the scrotum under the skin. The teste are a key part in the process of secreting testosterone. After completing this section I began to dissect the last system of the pig.

In this assignment I’m going to talk about the structure of the main tissues which are found within the body as well as what their role is in the terms of two named organs of the body. Tissues are a collection of similar cells that group together to carry out a specific function within the body. There are four different types of tissue found in the human body which include; epithelial tissue; connective tissue; muscle tissue and nerve tissue.
A female frog has its ovary attached dorsally on one side and is suspended into the coelom by a mesentry, which is a coiled oviduct with a funnel-shaped opening called the ostium at its anterior end, and its uterus being an enlargement near the cloaca. Meanwhile, the male frog has two tests which each suspend from the dorsal abdominal wall by a mesentery, and the several vasa efferentia are small ducts that carry sperm from the testes into the kidneys followed by cloaca by the ureters, also known as the genital ducts. The mating position of frogs is called the amplexus, a position where the male grasps onto the female and fertilizes the eggs as they are being laid by the

Marijuana is a popular and universal drug. It is easily accessible to most people and is the number one illicit drug used in North America. Although the availability and knowledge of this drug is fairly equal for all people in North America, marijuana tends to be more prevalent in teenagers and young adults. Maisto, Galizio, and Conners (2004) reported that "use of marijuana [in young people] was 8.0% among those aged 12-17; 16% among those aged 18-25," as compared to "6.8% among those aged 26-34; and 2.4% among those 35 and older." People of all ages, races, and religions use marijuana and have their own reasons to use it. Young people first try marijuana because of some common reasons. Some teenagers feel pressured by their peers to

The penis is a male organ, responsible for transporting urine and semen outside the body. It is a
The urethral opening is located on the underneath the penis, instead of the tip, and may exit the penis anywhere along its shaft as high as the scrotum.
Semen is the male reproductive fluid, containing spermatozoa in suspension. Sperm is a male reproductive cell. Prostate is a gland surrounding the neck of the bladder in male mammals and releasing prostatic fluid. Urethra is a duct by which urine is convey out of the body from the bladder, and which in male vertebrates also conveys semen. Penis is the male genital organ of higher vertebrates, carrying the duct for the transfer of sperm during copulation. Glans is the head of a penis. A shaft is the cylindrical part of the penis between the scrotum and head. Seminiferous tubules is any of the numerous long convoluted tubules in the testis which are the sites where spermatozoa mature. Seminal vesicles is each of a pair of glands that open into the vas deferens near its junction with the urethra and secrete many of the components of semen. Bladder is a membranous sac in human and other animals, which urine is collected for excretion.
