Top of Form . The Male Reproductive System > The Male Reproductive System: Introduction The male reproductive system is composed of the testes‚ genital ducts‚ accessory glands‚ and penis (Figure 21–1). The dual function of the testis is to produce spermatozoa and hormones. The genital ducts and accessory glands produce secretions that‚ aided by smooth muscle contractions‚ conduct spermatozoa toward the exterior. These secretions also provide nutrients for spermatozoa while

first step of photosynthesis and occurs in the chloroplast. Light is captured by light harvesting complexes. The light excites electrons which excite surronding electrons through resonance induction and excite special pairs of electrons. These electrons help pump protons into the chloroplast lumen creating a proton gradient. Photosystem I also absorbs light and excites electrons which are used to pump more protons. ATPsynthase facilitates the mvement of the protons back down the proton gradient allowing

Objective: To learn how to use and care for a microscope and to know the parts of a compound microscope and to efficiently use the microscope to focus on specimen. Introduction A microscope is an optical instrument used for viewing very small objects‚ typically magnified several hundred times. It consist of different lenses such as: Scanning = 4X‚ Low power = 10X‚ High power = 40 or 43X‚ Oil Immersion = 100X. A microscope is an instrument to see objects too small for the naked eye

On the other hand Mollusk Shells specifically Mussel Shells and Oyster Shells are commonly consumed as food or used in pearl production. But once the meat of the shell is eaten or the pearl is removed‚ these

Over time many theories have been developed into the structure of the atom and what the world around us is composed of. Many scientists and philosophers have dedicated their life works into trying to understand how atoms work and what they are made up of‚ although not all theories have been accepted they have all come together to form what we know today. It all started from a Greek scientist called Democritus‚ who developed the idea that everything is made up of smaller things‚ which he named atomos
