OVIDUCT (FALLOPIAN TUBE) Location: bilaterally from the uterus toward the ovaries. ... The other end communicates with the uterine cavity.Function: transmission the ova from the ovary to the uterus and providing the necessary environment for fertilization and for initial development of the conceptus.
The ovaries have two main reproductive functions in the body. They produce oocytes (eggs) for fertilisation and they produce the reproductive hormones, oestrogen and progesterone. ... In the ovary, all eggs are initially enclosed in a single layer of cells known as a follicle, which supports the egg.
Functions of the uterus include nurturing the fertilized ovum that develops into the fetus and holding it till the baby is mature enough for birth. The ferlized ovum gets implanted into the endometrium and derives nourishment from blood vessels which develop exclusively for this purpose.
It is the lower most part of the uterus and is made up of strong muscles. Thefunction of the cervix is to allow flow of menstrual blood from the uterus into the vagina, and direct the sperms into the uterus during intercourse. The opening of the cervical canal is normally very narrow.
The vagina receives the penis during sexual intercourse and also serves as a conduit for menstrual flow from the uterus. During childbirth, the baby passes through the vagina (birth canal). The hymen is a thin membrane of tissue that surrounds and narrows the vaginal opening.
