Cards (13)

  • The reproductive system is responsible for reproduction to ensure the continuation of species.
  • The ovaries are the main reproductive organs of the female Reproductive System.
  • The Fallopian tubes serve as the passageway of the egg and connect the ovaries to the uterus, making them the site of fertilization.
  • The uterus provides an appropriate environment for the fetus and consists of two parts: the Cervix and the Body.
  • The Endometrium is the mucus that lines the interior of the uterus.
  • Myometrium forms the wall thickness of the uterus.
  • The Perimetrium lines the exterior of the uterus.
  • The Cervix is the part that separates the uterus from the vagina and stays closed until the female gives birth.
  • The Vagina is a tube that extends from the uterus to the exterior and serves as the birth canal.
  • The Vagina is highly acidic (3.5 to 4 pH) and has its own way of cleaning itself.
  • The external part of the Vulva has two parts: the Labia Majora and the Labia Minora.
  • The Labia Majora, comparable to the scrotum, is covered with hair after puberty.
  • The Labia Minora surround the opening of the vagina.
