3. Castration tool that uses a band around the testicles which cuts off circulation and eventually the testicles fall off






4. Actual heat cycle (period)






5. Hold the penis in the bulls body when not in use. releases penis before ejaculation or urination.






6. 1. sperm is not implanted in egg until hours after breeding. 2. fetal growth has not yet finished.






7. 19-23 (21) days






8. Serves as a bone cradle for the reproductive system. used greatly in palpation as a 'landmark'.






9. Contains and regulates the temp of the testes for sperm production






10. 10-37 (21) days






11. Sperm is produced here






12. Failure to have both testis (gonads) descend






13. Microscopic - make sure not sterile - very few bulls are actually tested






14. Animals which have only one estrous cycle (ex: dog - fox)






15. Cycle that lasts weeks (ovulation->hormone cycles->ovulation)






16. (LH) causes female's egg to break (her period)






17. Indicator of sperm production. the bigger the scrotal circumference the bigger volume of sperm because more seminal vesicles available to produce the sperm






18. 336 days






19. Allows extension of penis without fibro-elastic penis






20. Why does estrus happen before ovulation?






21. Knife-loose ~1wk of growth. band-loose ~2wks of growth.






22. Important 'landmark' during palpation






23. 16-20 hours






24. Boars and stallions-> deliver semen directly into the cervix. bulls and rams-> deliver semen into the vagina.






25. Microscopic - make sure not sterile - very few bulls are actually tested






26. Cycle that lasts weeks (ovulation->hormone cycles->ovulation)






27. Animals which have many estrous periods during certain periods per year (ex: mare - ewe)






28. Not being bred back into herd. horses are seasonal breeders vs. cows as anytime breeders






29. S-shaped inside body - relaxes to be exposed for breeding. Disadvantges: muscles weaken with age - cannot always hold it in - exposed to harsh outside conditions or stepped on.

32. 1-2 days






33. Look for infection - split - and rupture of the penis






34. Can produce 200 calves naturally (~100 bulls) - top 1-2% will grade like him. everything left to chance if no AI performed






35. Duct which connects epididymis to urethra of the penis. transports sperm at ejaculation. cut to sterilize male.






36. Milk made by mother which includes antibodies for the calf. MUST be given to the calf within the first 24 hrs of life. also provides calf with energy stores. effectiveness lasts from 4-8 months of age.






37. (male) pushes the testes upward toward the body for warmth or protection






38. Small tubes located at the upper ends of the uterine horns. connects uterine horn to infundibulum. passageway of the egg.






39. Look for infection - split - and rupture of the penis






40. Failure to have one testis (gonad) to descend






41. Knife-loose ~1wk of growth. band-loose ~2wks of growth.






42. Hold the penis in the bulls body when not in use. releases penis before ejaculation or urination.






43. 45-60 days after breeding; re-breed as required






44. The more stressed out the male is - the less sperm he is going to produce






45. Sperm production






46. When she is pregnant in her last trimester because she needs the energy to carry around and deliver the calf. and when the calf is born because the cow needs the fat to be deposit it into her milk for the calf's energy stores.






47. Head - neck - mid-piece - tail. genetic material - has an enzyme covering that allows it to penetrate the egg
