Study Notes
Human Reproduction
- The beginning of pregnancy in human reproduction is marked by fertilization of the ovum, resulting in the formation of a zygote.
- Fertilization of the ovum typically occurs in the ampulla of the fallopian tube.
Male Reproductive System
- The function of the male reproductive system is to produce sperm and deliver it to the female reproductive tract during sexual intercourse.
Childbirth
- During labor in childbirth, the uterus contracts to push the fetus through the birth canal and out of the body.
Female Reproductive System
- The role of the female reproductive system in human reproduction is to produce ova (eggs), provide a site for fertilization, and nurture a developing fetus during pregnancy.
