    Male Checklist Male Reproductive System Components of the male Testes; accessory glands and ducts; the penis; and reproductive system the scrotum. Functions of the male The male reproductive system produces sperm cells that reproductive system can be transferred to the female, resulting in fertilization and the formation of a new individual. It also produces sex hormones responsible for the normal development of the adult male body and sexual behavior. Penis The penis functions as the common outlet for semen (sperm cells and glandular secretions) and urine. The penis is also the male copulatory organ, containing tissue that can fill with blood resulting in erection of the penis. Prepuce A fold of skin over the distal end of the penis. Circumcision is the surgical removal of the prepuce. Corpus spongiosum A spongy body consisting of erectile tissue. It surrounds the urethra. Sexual excitement can cause erectile tissue to fill with blood. As a result, the penis becomes erect. Glans penis The expanded, distal end of the corpus spongiosum. It is also called the head of the penis. Bulb of the penis The proximal end of the corpus spongiosum. Bulbospongiosus muscle One of two skeletal muscles surrounding the bulb of the penis. At the end of urination, contraction of the bulbospongiosus muscles forces any remaining urine out of the urethra. During ejaculation, contractions of the bulbospongiosus muscles ejects semen from the penis. Contraction of the bulbospongiosus muscles compresses the corpus spongiosum, helping to maintain an erection. Corpus cavernosum One of two spongy bodies consisting of erectile tissue that (pl., corpora cavernosa) form the sides and front of the penis.

  • Lab #23 Anal Triangle
    THE BONY PELVIS AND ANAL TRIANGLE (Grant's Dissector [16th Ed.] pp. 141-145) TODAY’S GOALS: 1. Identify relevant bony features/landmarks on skeletal materials or pelvic models. 2. Identify the sacrotuberous and sacrospinous ligaments. 3. Describe the organization and divisions of the perineum into two triangles: anal triangle and urogenital triangle 4. Dissect the ischiorectal (ischioanal) fossa and define its boundaries. 5. Identify the inferior rectal nerve and artery, the pudendal (Alcock’s) canal and the external anal sphincter. DISSECTION NOTES: The perineum is the diamond-shaped area between the upper thighs and below the inferior pelvic aperture and pelvic diaphragm. It is divided anatomically into 2 triangles: the anal triangle and the urogenital (UG) triangle (Dissector p. 142, Fig. 5.2). The anal triangle is bounded by the tip of the coccyx, sacrotuberous ligaments, and a line connecting the right and left ischial tuberosities. It contains the anal canal, which pierced the levator ani muscle portion of the pelvic diaphragm. The urogenital triangle is bounded by the ischiopubic rami to the inferior surface of the pubic symphysis and a line connecting the right and left ischial tuberosities. This triangular space contains the urogenital (UG) diaphragm that transmits the urethra (in male) and urethra and vagina (in female). A. Anal Triangle Turn the cadaver into the prone position. Make skin incisions as on page 144, Fig. 5.4 of the Dissector. Reflect skin and superficial fascia of the gluteal region in one flap to expose the large gluteus maximus muscle. This muscle has proximal attachments to the posteromedial surface of the ilium, posterior surfaces of the sacrum and coccyx, and the sacrotuberous ligament.

The vascular supply to the viscera and support­ ing tissue is demonstrated, as well as that portion of the vascular system which continues into the lower extremity. The model is divided into right and left portions. The right portion shows a midsagittal section of the pelvic structures. The left represents a similar section, but the dissection is deeper. Two pieces are remov­ able on the left side; one piece includes the bladder, prostate, and semi­ nal vesicles, and the other includes the penis, left testicle, and scrotum. When all portions are removed, a deeper view of these structures and a deeper dissection of the pelvis can be seen. THE URINARY SYSTEM The portion of the urinary system shown depicts the ureter from the level of the 5th lumbar vertebra, where it passes the common iliac ar­ tery near the bifurcation of thi s artery into the external and internal iliac arteries. The ureter then passes toward the posterior portion of the bladder, beneath the vas deferens, and opens through the wall of the blad­ der at one cranial corner of the trigone on the bladder's interior.

  • A. Pelvis 1. Name the Innominate Bones
    A. Pelvis 1. Name the innominate bones (those that are fused together and don’t move). There are two innominate bones, and each innominate bone contains three bones that are fused together. The three bones are the ilium, ischium, and pubis. They are placed laterally (on the side) on the pelvis, and each innominate bone has an acetabulum where the three bones fuse around it. The acetabulum is the concave surface of the pelvis, where the head of the femur meets with the pelvis to form the hip joint. 2. Describe the sacrum. The sacrum is a triangular shaped bone that has a superior base and an inferior apex. The anterior side of the sacrum is concave, while the posterior surface is convex. The sacrum consists of five vertebrae fused together. Attached by the sacroiliac joints, the sacrum lies between the innominate bones. The sacral promontory is the anterior and superior edge of the sacrum’s base (first sacral vertebra), and it protrudes forward forming the concavity. This protrusion into the cavity of the pelvis reduces the anteroposterior diameter of the pelvic inlet. If the sacral promontory was pushed backwards, it would widen the pelvic inlet and increase its diameter. 3. Describe the coccyx. The coccyx, or tailbone, is the final segment of the vertical column. It is also triangular and looks like a shortened tail at the bottom of the spine. It is composed of four vertebrae. The sacrococcygeal joint is between the superior side of the first coccygeal vertebra and the inferior side of the fifth sacral vertebra.
