Male Reproductive Organs:
1. Testes: The testes are responsible for producing sperm and the male sex hormone called testosterone.
2. Epididymis: This structure is located on top of each testicle and is where the sperm mature and are stored.
3. Vas Deferens: This is a long tube that carries sperm from the epididymis to the urethra.
4. Seminal Vesicles: These glands secrete a fluid that contains nutrients for sperm and helps them to move more effectively.
5. Prostate Gland: The prostate gland produces a fluid that makes up a large portion of semen. It also helps to neutralize the acidity of the female reproductive system.
6. Urethra: This is a tube that serves both the urinary and reproductive systems. It carries urine from the bladder as well as semen from the ejaculatory ducts out of the body.
7. Penis: The penis is the external male sexual organ. It delivers sperm through the urethra during sexual intercourse.
Female Reproductive Organs:
1. Ovaries: The ovaries are the female reproductive organs that produce eggs (ova) and female sex hormones such as estrogen and progesterone.
2. Fallopian Tubes: These tubes extend from near the ovaries to the uterus. They are responsible for capturing the released egg and providing a passageway for the egg to reach the uterus.
3. Uterus: The uterus is a pear-shaped organ where a fertilized egg implants and develops into a fetus during pregnancy.
4. Cervix: Situated at the lower end of the uterus, the cervix is a narrow passageway that connects the uterus to the vagina.
5. Vagina: The vagina is the muscular canal that links the cervix to the external genitalia. It receives the penis during sexual intercourse and serves as the birth canal during childbirth.
6. Labia: The labia consists of the labia majora (outer lips) and labia minora (inner lips). They protect the vaginal opening.
7. Clitoris: The clitoris is a small, highly sensitive organ located near the top of the labia. It contains a high concentration of nerve endings and plays a key role in sexual pleasure.
8. Mammary Glands: Not a reproductive organ, but important for reproduction and nourishing newborns, the mammary glands in the female breasts produce milk for breastfeeding.
