 GUESS
WHAT....

Mechanics of the game:

1. The class will be divided into two groups.

2. Each group will select a representative to answer every question.
3. Each question will have corresponding points.
4. Every group representative will only have one chance to be the
representative, so all the group members will have a chance to play the
game.
ARE YOU
READY?
 #1 ( 1 POINT)

What do you call the body

system that consists of the
brain, spinal cord, and nerves?
 ANSWER

NERVOUS SYSTEM
 #2 (2 POINTS)

It is a soft, wrinkled organ that weighs

about 3 pounds and is located inside
the cranial cavity.
ANSWER

BRAIN
 #3 (3 POINTS)

What do you call the process by

which an egg is fertilized by the
sperm outside the body?
 ANSWER

IN VITRO FERTILIZATION (IVF)

 #4 (2 POINTS)

It is made up of the brain and

spinal cord.
 ANSWER

CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM

(CNS)
 #5 (3 POINTS)

It is the state reached when the

each part of the body functions in
equilibrium with every other part.
ANSWER

HOMEOSTASIS
#6 (2 POINTS)

 CHAPTER 5: COORDINATED
FUNCTIONS OF THE
REPRODUCTIVE, ENDOCRINE
AND NERVOUS SYSTEMS

BESTCAP CAREER COLLEGE, INC.

Body systems work together.
 Learning objectives:

1. Describe the parts and functions of the reproductive system;

2. Explain the important roles of hormones in the female and male
reproductive systems;
3. Describe the mentrual cycle of a female reproductive system;
3. Explain the process of fertilization and development of the
embryo; and,
4. Describe the coordination of the nervous system with other body
systems to maintain homeostasis.
Coordination of Reproductive and
Endocrine Systems
 ENDROCRINE SYSTEM

It is made up of glands that are

responsible for production and
secretion of vital hormones.
 Role of Hormones in the Male and Female Reproductive System

Primary hormones of the reproductive

system

1. Gonadotropin- releasing hormone

(GnRH)

2. Follicle- stimulating hormone (FSH)

 Two main reproductive hormones of females:

1. Estrogen

2. Progesteron
Roles of Hormones in Menstrual Cycle
Fertilization and Embryo Development
Coordination of Endocrine and
Nervous Systems
 Endocrine System

A series of ductless glands

within the human body that
manufactures and distributes
hormones.
 Pituitary Gland

Body’s master gland.

Thyroid and Parathyroid Gland
Adrenal Gland
Sex Glands/ Gonads
 Nervous System

It consists of the brain, spinal

cord, sensory organs, and all of
the nerves in our body.
