 What is the reproductive system?

The genital apparatus is the set

of organs whose function is
related to sexual reproduction,
sexuality, the synthesis of sex
hormones and urination in
humans.
 Female reproductive system
The female
reproductive system
consists of internal
and external body
parts that help you
reproduce,
menstruate and
have sexual
intercourse.
 Internal female genitals
The internal
genitalia consist of:
Vagina
Uterus
Fallopian tubes

Ovaries.
Internal female genitals
The vagina communicates the internal genital
tract with the external genital tract; it is the
channel that receives the penis during sexual
intercourse and serves as the birth canal
during childbirth.

The uterus (womb) is a hollow organ. Its cavity is

lined by a membrane called the endometrium,
which is a tissue specially prepared for the
protection and nidation of the baby.
 Internal female genitals
The fallopian tubes connect the uterus to the ovaries.
Fertilization (union of the egg or female
reproductive cell with the sperm or male
reproductive cell) takes place in the fallopian tube.

The ovaries are two small glands located one on

each side of the uterus and close to the openings of
the fallopian tubes.

Hymen this is a thin, delicate tissue that partially

covers the entrance to the vagina.
 Female external genitalia (vulva)

The external genital

organs have three
functions:
 Allowing sperm to
enter the body
 To protect the internal
genital organs from
infectious agents
 To provide lubrication
and sexual pleasure
Female external genitalia (vulva)
© Labia minora: These are smaller lips that
surround the entrance to the vagina.
© Labia majora: These are the larger lips that
surround the vulva. After puberty, they
typically have pubic hair. At the top of the
vulva is also the mons pubis, which is a
rounded pad of fat that sits over the pubic bone.
© Clitoral hood and glans: The clitoral hood is a
small piece of tissue that protects the external
part of the clitoris. It sits at the top of the labia
minora.
 The external female genitals
The external genital
structures are the Vaginal opening
mount of Venus, the Your vaginal
labia majora, the labia opening allows
minora, and the menstrual blood
clitoris. The area and babies to exit
where these structures your body.
meet is called the
vulva.
Opening to your urethra
The opening to your urethra is the hole
you pee from.
 Male reproductive system

Male persons have reproductive

organs, or genitals, that are both
inside and outside the pelvis. Male
genitalia include:
 The duct system,
which consists of the
The testicles
epididymis and the
vas deferens

The accessory glands,

which include the
seminal vesicles and the The Penis
prostate gland
 THE TESTICLES

One of two glands found within the

scrotum. Also called the male genital
gland, male sex gland, male gonad and
teste.
Produce spermatozoa (which carry the
genetic load of the male)

Producing testosterone (the main male

sex hormone)
 The duct system
© The duct system is composed of:

The epididymis
The vas deferens is an elongated,
narrow, conductive tube that connects
the testicles and the vas deferens.
Semen circulates through this tube
and is where the final maturation of
the sperm takes place.
 Vas deferens

They are a pair of muscular

tubes surrounded by smooth
muscle, each approximately 35
to 45 cm long, which connect
the epididymis to the
ejaculatory ducts,
intermediating the path of
semen between them.
 The accessory glands
© Provide fluids that lubricate the duct system and
nourish the spermatozoa:
Seminal vesicles The prostate
Prostate gland
Two irregularly surrounds the part
shaped tubular of the urethra (the
glands that lie above tube through which
the prostate and the bladder
behind the urinary empties).
bladder
 The Penis

It is the male organ used for

urination and sexual intercourse. It
is located above the scrotum. It is
made up of spongy tissue and blood
vessels, inside which are two bodies
called cavernous and a spongy
body.
