super duper muddy point

Hey there! :) So, I was wondering, what's the difference between FSH and LH again? ALSO, what were the two phases called of the graphs? ...One of them was called the follicular phase and what was the other one? THANK YOU!

Muddiest Point!

For my muddiest point, I dont know what the negative and positive feedback loop are. I know what the feedback system is but I dont know if there is a difference from that and the feedback loop. And if they are the same thing, what makes it postive and negative. thanks!

THE WHAT? THE MENSTRUAL CYCLE!

Ello! It's Rachie In the beginning of class we went over the Male and Female Reproductive structures where you could match the word to the correct parts. You can find it on Moodle if you want to practice!

Second, we learned about the Endocrine System. Which regulates MANY bodily functions and maintains homeostasis. In simpler words, it influences almost every cell, organ, and function of our bodies.

Next, we went over slides about the Male/Female Secondary Sex Characteristics.

Male:

During puberty, FSH stimulates testes to produce testosterone.

Your probably wondering... what in the world does FSH stand for!?

F ollicle

S timulating

H ormone

It is released by the pituitary gland. Testosterone causes:

• Larynx to enlarge
• Broad Shoulders
• Facial/Pubic Hair
• Muscle growth

Female:

During puberty, FSH stimulates ovaries to produce estrogen. Estrogen causes:

• Breast development
• widening of hips
• menstruation

Last but not least.... the MENSTRUAL CYCLE!

Remember: Hormones regulate the menstrual cycle.

But if you want to be serious... watch this one.
