    Without the sperm and the egg to form life the reproduction of humans, or any creature for that matter, would not take place. All creatures would become old and would have no offspring to carry on their genetic characteristics or ever their name. They would only be in this life until it was finally snuffed out in some way or another. Fortunately though, there is sexual arousal, which allows a male and a female to indulge in their desire to satisfy their sexual urges, or their mere desire to mate and create new life.…

    egg and sperm

    • 661 Words

    In the article, " The Egg and the Sperm" by Emily Martin, the author attempts to shed light on the gender stereotypes hidden within the scientific language of our biology textbooks. I found this article to be very intriguing because, as a nursing student, I've been exposed to many medical and biology textbooks and it has never occurred to me that cultural beliefs could influence how a biologist described their discoveries. I had no idea that within the scientific accounts of reproductive biology, there could be a hidden stereotype implying that the male reproductive system is more dominant and active in its role than the female reproductive system. When I first began reading this article, I was a bit skeptical and thought that the author might have taken her ideas way a little far by thinking in between the lines. But the more I read and learned about the recent discoveries especially the one by John Hopkins University, I was convinced that there may be some truth to her assumptions. I was surprised to learn how some biological texts used positive connotations to portray the sperms as active, brave adventurer whereas using negative connotations like "ceasing" , "expelling" and "disintegrating" to describe an unfertilized egg to imply that it has gone to waste (Martin, pg. 2). In the article, Martin points out that majority of the sources describe the fertilization process as the egg having an impenetrable barrier called the "Zona Pellucida" and the sperm playing an active role in penetrating the barrier by mechanically burrowing and forcing its way through into the cell. Later on, research showed that it is actually the egg playing a more active process it acts an adherent to the head of the sperm which is a protein layer. Research has shown that sperm is not able to penetrate and thrust forward, it can only move sideways and once attached to the egg the sperm releases enzymes that can dissolve the Zona (Martin, pg.9). Although research suggests that both…

Some situations allow the smell of the semen to be sensed. Curiosity may influence us to wonder what does sperm smell like. There are ways to influence the natural smell of semen. Potential infections should be treated by a medical professional.…

This article is aimed for the public who may be interested in participating in such an ordeal and getting paid for it and also for the general public to be informed about a common occurrence within cities. Although there is no main conclusion because this is a newspaper article instead of a research paper, it can be analyzed that most people donate for the money reward. This…

    The first stage is from the onset of regular uterine contractions to full effacement and dilation of the cervix. It is much longer than the second and third stages combined. Parity is a strong factor in the length of the first stage. Full dilation may occur in less than 1 hour in a woman who has had a lot of pregnancies. In first time mothers, it can take 20 hours or more. Variations can also occur in different client populations. There are three different phases of the first stage of labor. They include the latent phase, active phase, and a transition phase. The latent phase includes progress in effacement of the cervix and a little increase in descent. The active phase and transition phase includes rapid dilation of the cervix and increased rate of descent of the presenting part. When a woman is obese prior to pregnancy, the active phase of labor can be longer. Nursing interventions would be to assist the woman with breathing exercises, reassure her, emphasize positive aspects of the situation, provide continuous emotional support, and respect contraction time. Some other interventions include respecting her activities, her pain management efforts, respect her contraction time, and promote change of position, and voiding and bladder care.…

    We all have biological fathers. Even if we haven’t met them before, we have seen pictures, or have been told stories about them from family members. Even adopted children are able to get information about their biological parents once they reach the age of 18. However, children from anonymous sperm donations don’t get this opportunity. These children aren’t searching for their biological father for financial support. They are only searching to know where they get their characteristics, habits, and looks from. Some are just searching so they can fill the void they have in their lives. So why are these children not granted the right to know their biological father?…

    A husband and wife come together to make their offspring. This statement was one of the core teachings the Jesus taught, and still stands as moral teaching for many today. However, there is not always a man and a woman. There are single females, homosexual couples, and infertile couples that still want the joys of an offspring. Sperm donation is one way that people in this position are creating an offspring. As this practice becomes more popular in the 21st century, many question its morality.…
