Question

what is function of female reproduction system

Answer 1

The female reproductive system provides several functions. The ovaries produce the female egg cells, called the ova or oocytes. The oocytes are then transported to the fallopian tube where fertilization by a sperm may occur. The fertilized egg then moves to the uterus, where the uterine lining has thickened in response to the normal hormones of the reproductive cycle. Once in the uterus the fertilized egg can implant into thickened uterine lining and continue to develop. If fertilization does not take place, the uterine lining is shed as menstrual flow. In addition, the female reproductive system produces female sex hormones that maintain the reproductive cycle.

During menopause the female reproductive system gradually stops making the female hormones necessary for the reproductive cycle to work. At this point, menstrual cycles can become irregular and eventually stop. One year after menstrual cycles stop, the woman is considered to be menopausal.

Answer 2

The female reproductive system comprises a pair of ovaries in the lower abdomen, a pair of oviducts (Fallopian tubes)and the uterus. The ovaries produce the female gametes (ova or eggs) and hormones. The uterus is the organ where the development of the fetus takes place.Each ovary is connected to the uterus by an oviduct. The products provide the way for the eggs to travel from the ovaries to the uterus. Once the female reaches the puberty, a mature egg is released from either of the ovaries into the fallopian tube,every month. The fertilisation of an egg also normally occurs in the Fallopian tube. The fertilised egg then moves to the uterus where the development of fetus takes place.If the egg is not fertilised, it is discharged out of the body
