The tube-like passage leading from the outer ear to the eardrum.

Another name for the external auditory canal

The eardrum, separating the outer and middle ear

Tiny bones in the middle ear that transmit sound vibrations

Part of the inner ear involved in hearing.

Inner ear structures that sense head movement and position, crucial for balance.

Fluid surrounding the membranous labyrinth of the inner ear.

Fluid inside the membranous labyrinth, in the inner ear.

Muscles that help prime movers by creating the same movement or reducing unwanted movements.

Muscles that oppose or reverse a movement.

Muscle contraction where the muscle shortens and movement occurs.

Muscle contraction where the muscle does not shorten but its tension increases.

Ductless glands that release hormones into the blood and lymph for body regulation.

Glands with ducts that release products to the body surface or cavities.

Chemicals released into the blood to coordinate body functions.

Coordinates and directs body cell activity alongside the nervous system using hormones.

Part of the male reproductive system; Sperm maturation.

Propels sperm; part of the spermatic cord

Connects epididymis to the ejaculatory duct through the ampulla.

Expanded end of the ductus deferens.

Receives sperm from ductus deferens and releases them into the urethra.

Carries both urine and sperm.

Structure that encloses the ductus deferens, among other things.

The prostate gland is part of the pathway that lets sperm out .

The system responsible for the production of female gametes (eggs) and hormones, and supports fertilization, pregnancy, and childbirth.

Female gonads that produce and release eggs (oocytes) and hormones, mainly estrogen and progesterone.

Also called fallopian tubes, they transport eggs released from the ovaries to the uterus, also where fertilization can occur.

A muscular organ where a fertilized egg implants and develops during pregnancy.

A canal that connects the uterus to the outside of the body, allowing passage for menstrual flow and birth.

Two tubes connecting the ovaries to the uterus. They transport the egg from the ovary to the uterus.

The lower neck of the uterus, connecting it to the vagina.

The middle layer of the uterus, made up of interlacing bundles of smooth muscle. It's responsible for the powerful contractions during childbirth.

Finger-like projections at the end of the fallopian tube that partially surround the ovary. These help capture the egg during ovulation.

Fimbriae create fluid currents that help carry the egg towards the fallopian tube after ovulation.

The myometrium helps force the baby out during labor and delivery by contracting rhythmically.

The inner lining of the uterus where a fertilized egg implants itself.
