what is the function of the epididymis, site of sperm maturation and stores sperm for up to 4 weeks, what is the function of the vas deferents, stores sperm for several months then propels them towards urethra during ejaculation, what is the function of the seminal vesicle, secretes alkaline fluid, making up 60% of semen, what are the three layers of the uterine wall, endometrium (inner), myometrium (middle), perimetrium (outer), what is there Ciliated epithelial tissue lining the fallopain tube, to ensure that the secondary oocyte does not pass into the body cavity, describe the process of Spermatogenesis, germinal epithelial cells divides by mitosis forming spermatogonia. Spermatognia divide by mitosis forming primary spermatocyte. Primary Spermatocyte undergoes meiosis I to form secondary Spermatocyte. Secondary spermatocyte undergoes meiosis II to form spermatids. Spermatids differentiate, mature and grow to form spermatozoa, describe the process of Oogenesis, germinal epithelial cells divide forming oogonia. Only one oognium continues to grow to form a primary oocyte. Meiosis I forms one secondary oocyte and one polar body. Meiosis II of secondary oocyte forms one haploid ootid and one polar body. Second meitotic division of polar body forms two more polar bodies which degenerate and die as ootid develops
