Vitiligo Definition and Overview. Vitiligo is an autoimmune skin disease in which there is a progressive destruction of the skinâs pigment-producing cells (melanocytes), resulting in areas of otherwise normal white skin devoid of melanin pigment. It is not unusual for hairs growing in areas of vitiligo to lose their normal color.
Sperm Cycle. Old sperm cells die off and new cells are created at a rate of about one percent each day. This means the entire sperm cycle requires approximately 100 days. The final 75 days represent a period of maturation for the sperm cell. This final step of sperm maturation, called spermiogenesis, puts the fuel into the tank and completes the development of the sperm cell (spermatozoon).
The male reproductive system includes the scrotum, testes, spermatic ducts, sex glands, and penis.These organs work together to produce sperm, the male gamete, and the other components of semen.emen. Semen is the fluid produced by males for sexual reproduction and is ejaculated out of the body during sexual intercourse. Semen contains sperm, the male reproductive gametes, along with a number of chemicals suspended in a liquid medium.
