English to Portuguese: Reproductive and hormonal functions of the male (and the Pineal Gland) General field: Science Detailed field: Medical (general)
Source text - English The reproductive functions of the male can be divided into three major subdivisions: first, spermatogenesis, which means simply the formation of the sperm; second, performance of the male sexual act; third, regulation of the male functions by the various hormones. Associated with these reproductive functions are the effects of the male sex hormones on the accessory sexual organs, cellular metabolism, growth, and other functions of the body.
Physiologic anatomy of the male sexual organs. Figure 80-1A shows the various portions of the male reproductive system, and Figure 80-1B gives a more detailed structure of the testis and the epididymis.
The testis is composed of up to 900 coiled seminiferous tubules, each averaging more than .5 meter long, in which the sperm are formed. The sperm then empty into the epididymis, another coiled tube about 6 meters long. The epididymis leads into the vas deferens, which enlarges into the ampulla of the vas deferens before the vas enters the body of the prostate gland. A seminal vesicle, one located on each side of the prostate, empties into the prostatic end of the ampulla, and the contents from both the ampulla and the seminal vesicle pass into an ejaculatory duct leading through the body of the prostate gland to empty into the internal urethra. Prostatic ducts in turn empty from the prostate gland into the ejaculatory duct. Finally, the urethra is the last connecting link from the testis to the exterior. The urethra is supplied with mucus derived from a large number of minute urethral glands located along its entire extent and even more so from bilateral bulbourethral glands (Cowper´s glands) located near the origin of the urethra.
Translation - Portuguese As funções reprodutivas masculinas podem ser divididas em três grandes subdivisões: primeiro, espermatogênese, que significa apenas a formação do esperma; segundo, a execução do ato sexual masculino; terceiro, regulação das funções reprodutivas masculinas por vários hormônios. Associados a essas funções reprodutoras estão os efeitos dos hormônios masculinos nos órgãos sexuais acessórios, no metabolismo celular, no crescimento, e em outras funções do corpo.
Anatomia fisiológica dos órgãos sexuais masculinos. A Figura 80-1A mostra as várias partes do sistema reprodutor masculino, e a Figura 80-1B mostra uma visão detalhada da estrutura dos testículos e do epidídimo.
O testículo é composto por até 900 túbulos seminíferos enovelados, cada um possui em média .5 metros de comprimento, onde os espermatozóides são formados. Os espermatozóides são depositados no epidídimo, outro tubo enovelado com cerca de 6 metros de comprimento. O epidídimo liga ao canal deferente, que se alarga na ampola do canal deferente antes que este entre na próstata. A vesícula seminal, cada uma localizada em cada lado da próstata, se liga à porção terminal da ampola próxima à próstata, e os conteúdos de ambas, ampola e vesícula seminal, passam por um duto ejaculatório que atravessa a próstata e desemboca na uretra. Os dutos prostáticos, por sua vez, saem da próstata e levam ao duto ejaculatório. Por fim, a uretra é o último elo entre os testículos e o exterior. A uretra recebe muco de um grande número de diminutas glândulas uretrais localizadas ao longo de sua extensão e principalmente de glândulas bulbouretrais (glândulas de Cowper) localizadas próximas a origem da uretra.
