In science class we watched a video called the miracle of life. This video was very interesting. I think the most interesting part of the movie was when the baby was growing inside the mother week after week.
The human male reproductive system has purposes. The purposes are making sperm and delivering sperm. The male reproductive system achieves the purpose of making sperm by having a lower temperature in the testes. The scrotum keeps the temperature low. The testes is where the sperm is made. The male reproductive system achieves the purpose of delivering sperm by the urethra in the male reproductive system. When the sperm leaves the testes it passes through the urethra which is a tube inside the penis. The fluids that go into the tubes provide a liquid that lets the sperm swim. By letting the sperm swim, lets the sperm have an adaptation to life on land.
Like the male reproductive system, the female reproductive system has purposes too. The purposes are making eggs, getting the female body ready for a baby, and developing the baby until it’s ready to live outside the mother. The female reproductive system achieves the purpose of making eggs by the ovaries also known as female gonads. The female reproductive system achieves the purpose of getting the female body ready for a baby by the menstrual cycle. This cycle prepares the uterus for pregnancy. The female reproductive system achieves the purpose of developing the baby until it’s ready to live outside the mother by the umbilical cord. The umbilical cord provides food and oxygen for the baby so that it can grow until it is ready to live outside of the mother. The mother also has to eat healthy foods and avoid drugs and alcohol.
**The parts of the male reproductive system are the urinary bladder, vas deferens, scrotum, testes, penis, urethra, and the prostate glands. The urinary bladder is where urine is stored. The vas deferens are tubes that carry the sperm. The scrotum is a sac that holds the testes. The testes is where the sperm is produced. The penis is where internal vertilization takes place. The urethra is a tube where the urine leaves the body. The prostate glands produce semen.
The parts of the female reproductive system are the oviduct, ovary, uterus, vagina, urethra and urinary bladder. The oviduct is a tube that allows the egg to pass to the uterus. The ovary is where egges are produced. The uterus is where the embryo is developed. The vagina is where the semen goes during intercourse. The urethra is a tube inside the vagina. The urinary bladder, like the male reproductive system, stores the urine.
The part in the movie that made me think ( and kinda get sick ) was when the baby came out. i was thinking about how much that must hurt and when does the baby become fully "alive"?
The point of the penis is to deliver the sperm to the vagina. the testes make the sperm by keeping a cooler temperature for the sperm.
The purpose of the female reproductive system is to make the eggs. also, its point is to get the body ready for a baby, and to develop the baby. the way it gets ready for the baby is by going through the menstrual cycle.
The coolest part in the movie and the part that made me think the most was probably when the movie talked about saying that about two million sperm cell and only about fifty of the two million are the ones that actually make it to the egg. The other part I thought was interesting was when I learned that only one sperm cell is allowed inside the egg to get fertilized and then that one sperm cell opens up the membrane to let all the other 49 sperm cells in the egg to get fertilized. The last thing that I thought was really cool was when we say the developing fetus inside the women and everyone said that the fetus looked plastic or really just fake. The way the male and female reproductive parts achieve there purposes is by, one of the male parts the testes is held outside of the body inside a sac like structure called the scrotum. The testes hold the sperm inside of them. The reason the testes are outside of the body is because the testes have to be 4 degrees under the regular body temperature for the sperm to be keep stored. The way the female reproductive part achieves its purposes are by, one of the female reproductive parts the vigina is keep inside the body because the inside the vigina there is a lot of liquid. The reason for there being a lot of liquid inside the vigina is so the sperm can be able to swim to the egg inside the ovary to be fertilized. That is how both the male and female reproductive parts achieve their purposes.
The thing I liked most about the video miracle of life was how they showed the fetus growing inside of the mother. Each week or new cycle they would show us how the fetus looked.
I also thought it was interesting how they got a camera inside the male and female reproductive organs and took pictures of the parts. I liked how they gave us that good and detailed info.
I was surprised how they showed us a child being born live. I think that was borderline disturbing yet educational.
The male reproductive system produces sperm in the testes. The sperm travels through the vas deferens and is delivered through the urthera and out the penis into the vagina during sex.
The female reproductive system produces eggs in the ovary. Females produce 1 egg per month but males produce Millions of sperm cells every few days.
In science class we watched the Miracle of Life. I thought the movie in the beginning was very boring. As the movie progressed it became more interesting. The most disturbing part of the movie was when the baby (mikey) was coming out of his mom’s vaginia. The most interesting part of the movie was when the sperm meet the egg. In was cool how the sperm got into to egg.
The human male reproductive system is very complex. There are many parts and they all do different things. The purpose of the human reproductive system is to send sperm up through the vaginia to the ovary and meet the egg to produce a zygote. The propose of the penis is to help ejaculation so it goes smoother. The urethra is inside the penis and is the tube where the sperm travels through. The testicle is outside the body because it has to be 3-4 degrees lower than the normal body temperature in order to produce sperm that is not watery.
The female reproductive system is also very complex. There are little do-dads all over the place. One part of the female reproductive system is the vagina. This is where the sperm meets the female and takes on the journey. The vagina is very acidic because on a female that is all open so it’s very easy to get infection. So that’s why so many sperm die right a way. In fact, ¼ of them die right away. Another part of the female reproductive system in the ovary. The ovary is where the egg is found at. It is also where the sperm meets the egg. The fallopian tube is where the egg travels down to the uterus, where it will either be fertilized or just keep going out of the vagina. This happens once a month.
**Three things that I thought were interesting about the movie are when the baby was growing inside the mother, how much sperm and eggs there are, and how the baby was being born.
In class on Monday and Tuesday we watched The Miracle of Life. It was about Human Reproductive System to the development of the Fetus into a baby. In the movie we had to take notes on the purposes of the human reproductive system in male and females. We needed to know the parts of both male and female reproductive systems and what they do, and how does each system accomplish these purposes. During the movie I though the three most interesting things were when the baby was growing inside the body, how they got the camera inside the male and female to show you what it looks like inside, and how the baby was being born. When the baby was growing inside it was really interesting how it should from week to week what it looks like and how it grows. How did they get the camera inside of them? That was a little weird but it taught us about the reproductive systems.
The male and female reproductive systems achieve these purposes because they have the correct organs to do so. The male reproductive system contains the urinary bladder, pelvic bone, prostate gland, urethra, penis, vas deferens, scrotum, and testis. The urethra is a tube inside the penis. The scrotum are testes that are held in a sac, testes are outside of the body because the testes have to be 4 degrees under the regular body temperature for the sperm to be keep stored. The testis produces sperm that takes place in a pair of gonads. The female reproductive system contains the ovary, urinary bladder, pelvic bone, urethra, vagina, uterus, and oviduct. The ovary produces eggs inside the oviduct. After the egg passes through an oviduct it moves to the uterus, the uterus has thick walls and a womb that opens to the vagina. This is how both male and female reproductive systems achieve their purposes.
The movie "The Miracle of Life" Made me think about how i was born. I thought about what it was like for me to be inside my mom. I thought that how the zygote will do mitotic division until it reaches the fetal stage. The third thing I thought was interesting was the frays on the end of the fillopian tube searching for the egg.
The male and female reproductive systems have to function properly for the sex cells to meet and form a zygote. The male reproductive system has to release certain fluids and close certain valves so the sperm don’t die. The testes have to create the sperm, the scrotum had to house the testes and expand and contract to control the testes' temperature. the vas deferens have to transport the sperm past the cowper's gland which releases fluid, past the prostate gland, which releases prostate fluid, which makes semen. Then the semen has to travel through the urethra, out of the male's body, into the female's body. The female reproductive system has to function properly so the sperm and egg can meet to form a zygote. The uterus has to get ready for the sperm to be delivered and so it can house the fetus. The ovary has to hold eggs and has to release the eggs at the right time. The fillopian tubes have to carry the egg to the uterus.
The coolest thing in the movie was probably the comparison of eggs and sperm because millions of sperm are made each day and only 1 egg is released a month. Another cool thing is that the baby is almost fully protected in the uterus, and is fed via the umbilical cord.
The purpose of the male reproductive system is to make sperm and deliver it to the egg so it can be turned into a baby. It makes sperm in the testes, and then delivers it to the egg via (in order) the vas deferns, then it goes by the seminal vesicles, where it is mixted with a fluid and is called semen, then it goes past the cowpers, which is an intersection that stops urine from mixing with the semen. (Lets just leave it at it won't be a pretty baby.) It then goes out of the penis through the urethra and into the vagina in the female, which now brings us to the female reproduction system. Well, first off, the female makes eggs that need to be fertilized by the semen. That happens when an egg is released from the ovarys. That happens during the menstrual cycle, which is a 28 day cycle that gets the body ready for fertilization. When the egg is released, it travels through the fallopion tube which leads to the uterus. If no sperm is present, it will break down and diseapear.
In science class on monday and tuesday, my class watched the miracle of life video. Three parts that I liked about this video was when they showed the fetus growing at different stages. It was really cool how it was able suck its thumb while inside the mother. I also liked the part where there was likea camera inside the person to show us how all the stuff worked. The part that I also thought was interesting was how only a few out of A LOT of sperm get to the egg.
The purposes of the male reproductive system is making sperm and delivering he sperm to a woman's egg. A male makes a lot of sperm through out his lifetime. The only way males can deliver sperm is if they have the right organs, which probably every male does. Every part works together to deliver the sperm to a female.
The purposes of the female reproductive system is the making of eggs, getting her body ready for the baby, and developing the baby until its ready to live outside the mother. The female's ovary makes the eggs. Once the egg is fertilized, it burries itself in the uterus lining, and then developes into an embryo. The female goes through a process called the mestrual cycle, this means getting her body ready for the baby. The embryo developes week after week getting larger and larger. Finally after all of this is over, the baby is ready to live outside the mother.
I thought that the movie, The Miracle Of Life was very interesting. Although I was only able to watch the beginning of it I learned a lot of interesting facts.
One thing I thought was interesting was what the sperm looks like and what it does. I learned about the male and female reproductive systems. I also thought it was interesting to see some abnormal sperm with two tails or sometimes even three.
The human female reproduction system makes eggs, gets the female body ready to have a baby, and develops the baby until its ready to live outside the body. There are ways that the female reproductive system achieves these purposes. The female reproductive system achieves making eggs. This happens because there are ovaries that produce the eggs in the structures like follicles. The menstrual cycle comes in when preparing the female reproduction system for a baby. The menstrual cycle prepares the uterus for pregnancy. During the menstrual cycle a mature egg is released from its follicle. The female reproductive system prepares the baby to live on the outside. To achieve this females have to eat very nutritious food and avoid alcohol and drugs.
The human male reproductive systems purpose is to make sperm and also to deliver sperm. The human male reproductive system achieves this. The ways they male reproductive system achieves making sperm is by his testes. The testes is a pair of male gonads. There is a sac that holds the testes called the scrotum. The scrotum keeps the testes one or two degrees lower then the average body temperature of a male. This is important because it helps the production of sperm. The way the male reproductive system achieves delivering sperm is by a tube inside the penis called the urethra. The urethra is important because sperm goes through the tube. There are fluids in the urethra that give the sperm glucose (to be able to have energy) and alkaline PH. This is called semen.
This is how the female reproductive system and the male reproductive system achieve there purposes.
One of the interesting parts about the movie is when they showed what the baby could do during the time it was inside the mother. It was also cool to se the baby grow. But I thought the part when you see the baby born was gross
In class we saw a video called The Miracle of Life. One thing what was very interesting was how the baby was growing week by week and how fast time goes by until the baby comes out. The zygote starts off as a clump of cells for the first few weeks, and these cells grow and get things like toenails and fingers. They are getting all their food from the cord connecting them to the mother. The way they started off as a grain of sand was so cool because they end up as a big baby! Another thing I thought was intesting was how the sperm fuses with an egg. So many of them go travelling for the one egg. Only one makes it. They swim there and have to take the right course! Another thing that was interesting was how many sperm cells were produced every day by the testicles; 100 million!
The male reproductive system makes sperm. The sperm is made in the testes in the scrotom. The sperm is made by the process of meiosis. The sperm has head and tail and contains genetic information. The sperm travels and leaves through the penis as semen into the vagina. The penis is the perfect shape for delievering sperm.
The female reproductive system produces eggs in the ovaries. These eggs are produced by the process of meisos. The eggs are released in the menstral cycle from the ovaries, through the falopian tubes, into the uterus, so the vagina can catch sperm and the egg can get fertilized. In the menstral cycle the uterus’ lining gets thick in case a baby does grow. This is how the body gets ready for a baby. If a baby were to grow, the menstral cycle would stop because the baby would need the uterine lining . Also the baby would have a cord connecting itself to the mother so nutrients can be passed through. The baby would live in a sac.
When we watched the video in class, the part that made me think the most was when the baby was about a week or 2 old and how small it was. it looked deformed so I thought that was really interesting. Another one was how the baby was being born. it took so much energy and it had to be done very carefully. also i thought it was cool how it was able to suck its thumb, when it did, it looked really interesting.
The purpose of the male reproductive system is to make and deliver sperm. the male reproductive achieves this purpose because of how sperm is made in the testes so the temp. there has to be low. too hot or cold could result badly.
The purpose of the female reproductive system is to make eggs, get the female body ready for the baby and to develop the baby until its ready to live outside the mother. It achieves this by keeping the baby in the womb for 9 months so the baby is big enough and unfragile enough to take care of itself.
sorry mr.a but you need to tell me my username because i keep forgetting.
One thing I thought was interesting was that 200,000,000 sperm enter the females body and only 50 make it to the egg and out of that 50 only 1 fertilizes the egg. Another thing I thought was interesting was that ¼ of the sperm die when they enter the female’s body. Another thing I thought was interesting was that sperm can travel 12 inches in just a few seconds.
The purpose of the male reproductive system is to make and deliver sperm. Sperm is made in the testes. If the temperature in the testes is too hot or too low then the sperm may come out demented. Also if the man is stressed it could also affect sperm production.
The purpose of the female reproductive system is to make eggs. The eggs are produced in the ovaries. When they are mature they are released out of the ovaries and into the uterus. Then the egg buries itself into the wall of the uterus and that is where it grows until it is ready to live by itself outside the mother.
The movie 'The Miracle Of Life' made me think about how i was born and how i was inside my mom. I never thought that the baby inside the women went through so many process. I knew that there was mitosis because the egg had to multiply to make other cells. The movie was very interesting. I know that each step in making a baby is very important because anything can go wrong. Some things that interested me was that when semen is released into the women's about 50 million of them die instantly which is a lot of sperm dead. Another thing that was interesting to me was only half of the sperm make it to the 'right' tube and find the egg that carry's the baby. The last thing that was intresting to me was when the baby was born and the women of that baby was happy not only to get it out of her but
also to welcome it to the wolrd that it has been waiting for for 9 months. Lots of things about 'The Miracle Of Life' made me think, one is making a baby takes a lot of time and patients and not all people have that in them. The testicles make sperm, the scrotum hold the testicles in place and that is all important for the sperm. Without the testes there would be no sperm and most important no baby making. The sperms only job is to make sure that the sperm makes it way to the womens egg and fertilizes it. The temperature of the scrotum is also important.
The female reproductive system has a lot of jobs just like the but the most important is to make sure that the egg inside her is being kept safe. The fallopian tube holds the egg and protects it but the male reproductive system comes in and 'demands' to fertilize the egg. Within 24 hours if the egg is not fertilized the egg will die and if the egg is fertilized within 24 hours the egg is fine. Inside the female body there are things called White Blood Cells which everyone has that fight off and protect the body and when the sperm is released into the woman's, those WBC try and fight off the sperm because it has never seen it before and thinks it is a threat. The female reproductive achieves this by keeping the body in good health and shape for anything.
The male reproductive system is just like the female's body but with a few different things to it. For example, if the testes are above a certain temperature a persons sperm count will drop and if the temperature if below a certain temperature the number of sperm will increase. All parts of the female and male reproductive system are always important because without those two reproductive systems there wouldn't be a lot of people as there are today.
This week we watched the Miracle of Life but I think until I don't have a kid of my own, I won't consider it a "miracle". The word that comes to mind is pain. Something that amazed me but might sound gross, is that how wide the vagina opens to allow to baby to be born. Something else that I thought was interesting is that the offspring isn't called a fetus when the sperm and egg get together. It's actually called an embria. I'm not sure I spelled that right. The third thing that made me think was how complicated it is to have twins. It's as if when the mom gets pregnant with twins, before that happens, the process is much more complex than I'd thought before watching the movie.
The female and male reproductive systems are very complicated but it's interesting how they work together to create an offspring. The male's testes are held in something called a scrotum. The testes make the sperm. But the making of sperm is only possible because the scrotom is located outside the male's body. This is because to make sperm, you need 2 or 3 degrees of difference from the normal body temperature. Or else the sperm are deformed or simply sperm cannot be made. That's one purpose of the male reproductive system.
The female reproductive system has to make eggs. In order for this production of eggs, there's a process called the menstruation cycle that the woman's body has to go through to produce eggs. After that, the egg is ready to be fertilized. If the egg is fertilized within 24 hours, then the female reproductive system has a new job: get the body ready for a baby.
But for fertilization to occur, the sperm must find the egg in the uterus. When the semen is released, there's about 100,000 sperm swimming in the womans body, trying to reach the egg. This is the second job of the sperm: to fertilize. Well, after the sperm reaches to woman's body, it has to go through a series of obstacles. Since the sperm is unknown to the woman body, white blood cells from the Immune System attack it. At the end of the run, only one sperm is able to reach the egg, and in some cases, 2 sperm reach the egg and create twins.
After the fertilization occurs, the woman's body begins to change in order for the uterus to be able to carry a child. Then at 2 or 3 weeks, the embria is called a fetus. After about nine months, the baby is ready to be born. And THAT is the miracle of life.
volleyballxshortyy-out but on AIM
When I watched the Miracle of Life I thought a lot of things were interesting, and a lot of things were nauseating. The 3 things that interested me most were learning how 20% of the sperm is deformed, and why. What also really interested me was the part where they showed the process of the baby growing inside week by week. Another thing that interested me was seeing what is really happening inside the body while all this is happening and it really made me think.
The purposes of the human male reproductive system are to produce the sperm and deliver the sperm. The sperm is used to fertilize the female’s eggs. The sperm is made in the testes and takes about 72 days for one to grow. In the male’s reproductive system, it achieves its purpose delivering the sperm through the urethra, which is a tube that connects the urinary bladder to the outside of the body. The urethra is a tube inside of the penis, which is, where the sperm goes threw by. The parts inside the human male reproductive system are: Testes, Urethra, Penis, Vas Deferens, and Prostate Glands. The testes store and produce millions of sperm. The Urethra is the tube that brings the semen from the outside of the body through the penis and is also part of the urinary system because it is also the tube through which urine passes as it leaves the bladder and the body. The penis is the male organ that secrets semen and urine from the body. The Van Deferens is a muscular tube that transfers semen through the testes. Lastly comes the prostate gland produces some parts of the semen.
The purposes of the human female reproductive system are to make eggs, getting the body ready for the baby, and to develop the baby, until it is ready to live outside of the mother. In the female, the gonads are in the ovaries. The female gonads produce gametes aka eggs. After the sperm fertilizes an egg, the zygote is the fertilized egg, which happens when an egg is released from the ovaries. During a women’s menstrual cycle, the body gets ready for fertilization (getting ready for the baby), which can take 28-30 days. When the egg is released from the ovaries, it travels through a tube called the fallopian tube, where it waits for the sperm, unless there is known then it will break and disappear. If it doesn’t then the embryo grows and grows within weeks and weeks, until it is ready to live outside the mother’s body. The parts of the human female reproductive system are: the Fallopian Tube, Ovaries, Urethra and Vagina. The Fallopian Tube holds the egg. The Ovaries produce, store, and release into the Fallopian Tube, which is called Ovulation. The Urethra contains some of the strongest muscles in the female, the muscles are able to expand and contract to help a growing baby and then help push the it out during the women’s labor.

**whoops i did it 3 times
In class we watched the Miracle of Life to learn more about the Human Reproductive System.
I thought that it was interesting that 20% of normal mans sperm are deformed or imperfect. I also thought it was interesting that that men produce one million sperm a day! A third thing that I though, was interesting that the environmental conditions also damages the sperm production.
The human male reproductive system has purposes such as making sperm and delivering sperm. The male reproductive system achieves making sperm by having a lower temperature in the testes. The scrotum is what keeps the temperature low. The sperm is made in the testes. The male reproductive system achieves delivering sperm by the urethra. The urethra is a tube inside the penis that allows the sperm to be delivered after it leaves the testes.
In the female reproductive system there are purposes too. One purpose is making eggs. The female reproductive system achieves this purpose by having ovaries. Another name for ovaries are female gonads. Another purpose in the female reproductive system is getting the female body ready for a baby. This purpose is achieved by The Menstrual Cycle. The third purpose of the female reproductive system is developing the baby until it's ready to live outside the mother. This is achieved by the umbilical cord which provides the oxygen and the food for the baby and also the mother should eat healthy food because she is eating for two. Also the mother should avoid alcohol and drugs.
The parts of the male reproductive system:
vas deferens- The tubes that carry sperm.
testes- Male gonads. Gametogenesis takes place here.
scrotum- The testes are held in a sac called the scrotum.
penis- Adapted for internal fertilization.
urethra- Tube inside the penis.
urinary bladder- Where the urine is stored.
prostate glands- Produce semen.
The parts of the female reproductive system:
vagina- Receives semen during intercourse.
fallopian tubes- Another name for oviduct.
uterus- The embryo developes here.
ovaries- Female gonads. The production of eggs takes place here.
ceruix- Opens into vagina
