Ans 1. The structure and function of organs of the male and female reproductive system along with gamete formation and the female menstrual cycle is describes as below:
A. Male reproductive system-
The male reproductive system is responsible for sexual reproduction and urination. Most of the parts of male reproductive system are situated
outside the body and are known as external organs. For example-Penis, Scrotum and testicles. While those parts of male reproductive system which are situated inside the body are known as Internal organs. Example-Vas deferens, epididymis, prostate gland, seminal vesicle, Cowper’s gland, Ejaculatory ducts and urethra. The function of each of the part is explained as below:
1.Penis- It is the main organ for sexual intercourse and has the opening for urine and semen. It has sponge like erectile tissue known as corpus cavernosum and corpus spongiosum which helps in the erection of penis.
2.Scrotum- It is a loose pouch like structure which contains testicles and is located below the penis.
3.Testicles or Testes- Primary sex organ of male responsible for making sperms and male sex hormone Testosterone.
4. Seminiferous tubules- It is located within the testes and is the main site of meiotic division and sperm formation.
5.Vas Deferens-It is a long tube-like structure that runs from epididymis to urethra and helps in the transport of mature sperms.
6.Epididymis-Long coiled tube that transport and store sperm cells and helps in their maturation. It is present on the back side of testes
7.Seminal Vesicles- Produced fructose rich fluid that provides energy to the sperm to move.
8. Prostate Gland- It produces fluid that helps in the nourishment of sperm.
9. Cowper’s Gland- It produces fluid that helps in the lubrication of urethra and for neutralizing the acidity of urine.
10.Ejaculatory duct-form by fusion of vas-deferens and seminal vesicles and help in the transfer of semen.
11. Urethra-It is a tube that carries urine from bladder to the outside of body and also helps in ejaculation of sperms.
B. Female reproductive system-
The female reproductive system is responsible for sexual reproduction and development of fetus. The major parts of female reproductive system are: Ovaries, Fallopian tube, Uterus, Cervix, Vagina, Clitoris and Vulva. The function of each of the part is explained as below:
1.Ovaries -These are the primary female sex organ responsible for the formation of ovum and female sex hormone estrogen and progesterone.
2. Ovarian Ligaments-It is a supporting ligament of ovary and uterus present within the pelvis.
3. Fallopian tube- These are the small tube-like structures present near the ovary and is the primary site of fertilization of sperm and ovum.
4. Fimbriae- These are the finger like projections of fallopian tube that helps to capture the released ovum
5. Uterus – This is a sac like structure which holds and provides nourishment to developing fetus. Also known as Mother’s womb.
6. Endometrium – This is the wall of uterus that helps in the placenta formation and sheds as menstrual blood if no fertilization occurs.
7.Cervix- It is the neck of uterus whose strong and thick walls helps to hold fetus and during child birth it expands to allow the baby to pass.
8.Vagina- It is a hollow tube that runs from opening of vagina to uterus that acts as passage for menstrual blood and as a birth canal.
9.Clitoris- It is a small sensory organ located in front of vulva.
10.Vulva – It is the external part of female...
