t. e. Normal human body temperature (normothermia, euthermia) is the typical temperature range found in humans. The normal human body temperature range is typically stated as 36.5–37.5 °C (97.7–99.5 °F). [8][9] Human body temperature varies. It depends on sex, age, time of day, exertion level, health status (such as illness and ...
The pelvis is, in general, different between the human female and male skeleton. [12] [13] Although variations exist and there may be a degree of overlap between typically male or female traits, [12] [13] the pelvis is the most dimorphic bone of the human skeleton and is therefore likely to be accurate when using it to ascertain a person's sex ...
e. Human reproduction is sexual reproduction that results in human fertilization to produce a human offspring. It typically involves sexual intercourse between a sexually mature human male and female. [ 1 ] During sexual intercourse, the interaction between the male and female reproductive systems results in fertilization of the ovum by the ...
Human thermoregulation. As in other mammals, human thermoregulation is an important aspect of homeostasis. In thermoregulation, body heat is generated mostly in the deep organs, especially the liver, brain, and heart, and in contraction of skeletal muscles. [ 1 ] Humans have been able to adapt to a great diversity of climates, including hot ...
During puberty, a male's erect penis becomes capable of ejaculating semen and impregnating a female. [26] [27] A male's first ejaculation is an important milestone in his development. [28] On average, a male's first ejaculation occurs at age 13. [29] Ejaculation sometimes occurs during sleep; this phenomenon is known as a nocturnal emission. [25]
Dioecy. Gonochorism. Hermaphrodite. v. t. e. Temperature-dependent sex determination (TSD) is a type of environmental sex determination in which the temperatures experienced during embryonic/larval development determine the sex of the offspring. [ 1 ] It is observed in reptiles and teleost fish, with some reports of it occurring in species of ...
Aristotle thought that the female body being well-suited to reproduction entails that it has a different body temperature than the male body's. [5] If the semen is hot enough to overpower the cold menses, the child will be a boy; but if it is too cold to do this, the child will be a girl.
A number of physiological responses occur in the body and mind as preparation for sexual intercourse, and continue during intercourse. Male arousal will lead to an erection, and in female arousal, the body's response is engorged sexual tissues such as nipples, clitoris, vaginal walls, and vaginal lubrication.
