    Study Notes

    • The reproductive system has internal and external structures.
    • Primary reproductive organs are called gonads and produce gametes and hormones.
    • Female reproductive system includes labia, clitoris, vagina, cervix, uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries.
    • Male reproductive system includes penis, testes, scrotum, epididymis, ductus deferens, urethra, seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and bulbourethral glands.
    • The female reproductive system supports embryonic development and fertilization.
    • The male reproductive system only initiates fertilization.
    • The clitoris contains sensory nerve endings that respond to sexual stimulation.
    • The uterus houses and nurtures female gametes after fertilization.
    • The testes produce male gametes and sex hormones.
    • The scrotum is located outside the abdomen to reach lower temperatures for proper sperm development.
