Question

What is the Egg path in female frogs reproductive system?

Answer 1

Trace the path of sperm in a male and eggs in a female. A male frog has two testes, which are attached to its kidneys. Sperm travels through the kidneys into the ureters (Carry urine from kidneys to bladder). Sperm is released directly through the cloaca onto the eggs of the female.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.

Answer 2

Answer:

The egg path in the reproductive system of a frog is that the Mesovarium produces ova and then these Ova are released into the body cavity. After that fallopian funnel receives the ova. Finally, these ova are stored in the Ovisac or uterus.

Explanation:

• The female reproductive parts of the frog are the ovaries and the genital ducts.
• Ovaries are one pair of irregular and lobulated structures, present on the ventral side of the outer border of the kidneys. Each ovary is suspended by a mesentery, called mesovarium (which produces ova by the process of oogenesis). Ova are released in the body cavity by rupturing of ovaries.

• Genital ducts are one pair of long and convoluted structures. Each one is differentiated into three parts: The fallopian funnel (which receives the ova through an inward-directed wide aperture, called ostium), the Oviduct, and the Ovisac or uterus (which stores egg), which finally opens in the roof of the cloaca.

• Therefore, we can say that the egg path in the reproductive system of a female frog is that the Mesovarium produces ova, and then these Ova are released into the body cavity. After that fallopian funnel receives the ova and then the Oviduct secretes three jelly coats around the ova. Finally, these ova are stored in the Ovisac or uterus.

• Males are the first to reach the shallow waters and croak to attract the females and then the two sexes show a sexual embrace, called amplexus, for a few days. Nuptial pads of male frog help in amplexus. Female releases 2500-3000 ova in a gelatinous mass, called spawn, and the process is called spawning.
