Answers
Explanation:
The uterus is a major female hormone-responsive secondary sex organ of the reproductive system in humans and most other mammals. In the human, the lower end of the uterus, the cervix, opens into the vagina, while the upper end, the fundus, is connected to the fallopian tubes. It is within the uterus that the fetus develops during gestation. In the human embryo, the uterus develops from the paramesonephric ducts which fuse into the single organ known as a simplex uterus. The uterus has different forms in many other animals and in some it exists as two separate uteri known as a duplex uterus.
Uterus :- The womb or uterus is a hollow muscular organ which has the capacity to bear the child. After fertilization, female reproductive hormones bring in many changes to the uterus, so as to bear the growing embryo. In the absence of fertilization,the thickened wall of ovary ruptures and tears itself into pieces. These torn out pieces along with blood vessels and degenerated ovum is released out as menstrual flow.
The embryo grows and develops inside the uterus. The vagina receives sperms. It is lubricated with continuous discharge from the secretory cells lining the reproductive tract.
