SUPPLEMENTARY LEARNING MATERIAL ON REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM

MODULE 1-WEEK 1| QUARTER 3RD | SCHOOL YEAR 2020-2021

HOW TO THIS MODULE PARTS OF THIS MODULE

Before you start answering the Supplementary
Learning Material (SLeM), I want you to set
aside other tasks that will disturb you while
enjoying the lessons. Read carefully the
instructions below to successfully enjoy the
objectives of this kit. Have fun!
1. Follow carefully all the contents and
instructions indicated in every part of this
SLeM.
2. Write on your notebook the concepts about
the lessons. Keep in mind that Writing
develops and enhances learning,
3. Perform all the provided activities in the
SLeM.
4. Let your facilitator/guardian assess your
answers.
5. Analyze conceptually the posttest and
apply what you have learned.
6. Enjoy studying!
• Expectations. This will provide what will you
will be able to know after completing the
lessons in the SLeM.
• Pretest. This will assess your prior
knowledge and the concepts to be mastered
throughout the lesson.
• Looking Back. This section will measure the
skills that you learned and understood from
the previous lesson.
• Activities. These are activities designed to
develop your critical thinking and other
competencies that you need to master. This
can be done solely or with your partner
depending on the nature of the activity.
• Remember. This section summarizes the
concepts and applications of the lessons.
• Checking Your Understanding. This will
verify how you learned from the lesson.
• Posttest. This will measure how much you
have learned from the entire SLeM.

LESSON 1 REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM

EXPECTATION
This Supplementary Learning Material will help you to:
1. describe the parts of the reproductive system and their function
2. explain the role of hormones in the female and male reproductive system
3. relate the importance of reproductive hormones

PRETEST
Directions
I. Arrange the male reproductive II. Arrange the female reproductive parts
organs from production to release of sperm from oogenesis to discharge of unfertilized
cells. egg.
_____a. Urethra _____a. Vagina
_____b. Vas deferens _____b. Cervix

Female Gonad Bladder Vagina Penis Oviduct Cervix Male

The _______reproductive system The _____________reproductive system

BRIEF INTRODUCTION:
The morphological and physiological structure of the male reproductive system is
different from the female reproductive system. The external and internal parts differ in size and shape as
well as its functions. Though the parts and functions of the reproductive system are different in some
aspects ,they are coordinated parts and functions. The role of the male reproductive system is to
produce and transport sperm cells while the female reproductive system is to produce egg cells and for
child-bearing. Without the fusion of the gamete from the testis of the male organ with gamete from the
female organ, reproduction will not occur.

ACTIVITIES
Activity 1 What a Journey
Directions:
1. Trace the pathway of sperm from testis to urethra.
2. Trace the pathway of egg from ovary to vagina

Activity 2 Role of Hormones in the Reproductive System

Hormones play an important role that regulates the function of a specific organ of the body.
These are regulating and complex chemical substances secreted by the endocrine glands that are carried
through the blood stream to the target organ in many areas of the body. The hormones of the reproductive
system carry a specific role during puberty, ovulation, pregnancy and development. The reproductive
glands are controlled by the pituitary gland, which is controlled by the hypothalamus. The reproductive
glands of boys and girls work at low levels until the age of 10. After this age, hormone levels begin to
increase and physical changes start to develop. The hypothalamus releases chemical substances that
signal the pituitary gland to start producing two hormones responsible for reproduction – the follicle-
stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). Both males and females produce these kinds of
hormone. They affect the testes in men and the ovaries in women.

.
 The LH of the male sends signals in the testes to produce testosterone with FSH to control
the production of sperm and the growth of facial hair. In females, the pituitary hormones LH and FSH
stimulate the ovaries to produce estrogen and progesterone. These hormones are responsible to produce
ova or mature egg cells

REMEMBER
➢ The Reproductive System is a collection of organs in an organism that function together for
sexual reproduction. The male reproductive organs are the penis, the testicles, epididymis, vas
deferens and the prostate gland. The female reproductive organs are the vagina, uterus, fallopian
tubes and ovaries.
➢ Hormones play an importnt role in both male and female reproductive systems. The pituitary
gland controls the functions both the testes and the ovaries. These hormones keep the
reproductive system properly functioning.
➢ Reproduction is the process by which organisms produce offsprings and perpetuate species.
➢ Female gonad or ovary produces hormone estrogen and progesterone. It also produces egg cell
while male gonad or testis produces hormone testosterone and sperm cell.
➢ Production of gametes in males and females is controlled by hormones o the endocrine glands.
➢ Fertilization is the union of egg cell and sperm cell forming zygote, a fetilized egg.
➢ Continous mitotic divisions allow the developing orgnism to increase in size and develop many
structure.

CHECKING YOUR UNDERSTANDING

Check one of the boxes describing how the lesson helped you attain the focus points
intended for the lesson. Based on your response, your teacher will present you with a short assessment
to check what reinforcement or extension activities can be used to furher enhance your understanding
