Answer 2

Dear Student,

● Urethra is called urinogenital duct -

Urine passes through urethra during micturition.

Also semen in male is passed through urethra at the time of coitus.

As both urine (from urinary system) and semen (from reproductive system) are passed through urethra, it is called urogenital duct.

Hope this is helpful to you. Keep asking questions dear.
