Hormones Why are hormones needed?

chemical messages from one body part to cells in other parts of body

communication needed to coordinate whole body

maintaining homeostasis energy production growth development maturation reproduction

growth hormones

Page 3: Hormones & Reproduction

Regents Biology

Endocrine System Endocrine system releases hormones

glands which secrete chemical signals into blood

chemicals cause changes in other parts of body

Negative Feedback Response to changed body condition

every time body is high or low from normal level a signal tells the body to make changes that will bring body back to normal level

once body is back to normal level, signal is turned off

Reproductive hormones Testosterone

from testes sperm

production & secondary sexual characteristics

Estrogen from ovaries egg production,

preparing uterus for fertilized egg & secondary sexual characteristics

Page 12: Hormones & Reproduction

Regents Biology

Sperm production over 100 million produced per day! ~2.5 million released per drop!

Male reproductive system

Male reproductive system

Testes & epididymis sperm production &

maturation Glands

seminal vesicles, prostate, bulbourethal

produce seminal fluid

nutrient-rich

Page 15: Hormones & Reproduction

Regents Biology

Male reproductive system Testicles (Testes)

produces sperm & hormones Scrotum

sac that holds testicles outside of body Vas deferens

tubes for sperm to travel from testes to penis Prostate

• Produces nutrient rich fluid to feed & protect sperm

Female reproductive system

Page 17: Hormones & Reproduction

Regents Biology

Female reproductive system Ovaries

produces eggs & hormones Uterus

nurtures fetus; lining builds up each month Oviduct (Fallopian tubes)

tubes for eggs to travel from ovaries to uterus Cervix

opening to uterus, dilates 10 cm for birthing baby Vagina

birth canal for birthing baby

Female hormones FSH & LH

released from pituitary stimulates egg development & hormone release peak release = release of egg (ovulation)

Estrogen released from ovary cells around developing egg stimulates growth of lining of uterus decreasing levels causes menstruation

Progesterone released from “corpus luteum” in ovaries

cells that used to take care of developing egg stimulates blood supply to lining of uterus decreasing levels causes menstruation
