The uterus is where the development of the foetus takes place, where vaginal and uterine discharges are produced and where the sperm passes through to the fallopian tubes leading into the ovaries. The ovaries are where the female sex cells are produced. The male reproductive system is made up of 3 main external structure; the penis, scrotum and testicles. The penis is the male organ for sexual intercourse (Cleveland Clinic, 2011).

The fallopian tubes with its finger like projections known as fimbriae sucks the eggs in to the tubes, and in to the ampule the longest part of the tube where fertilisation most commonly takes place. Another crucial structure is that of the uterus, and this is the muscular sack where the embryo grows, and eventually develops in to a baby. Finally the vaginal canal which is where sperm travels up, in order to get to the eggs, and this is attached to the cervix/the neck of the

It is made up of simple columnar epithelium tissue and exocrine cells. Submucosa: composed of loose connective tissue, with larger blood vessels, lymphatic, nerves and can contain mucous secreting glands Muscularispropria: composed of two smooth muscles; the inner which is segmentation and the outer which is peristalsis which allow movement of food through the gut Adventia or serosa: outermost layer composed of loose connective tissue covered by the visceral peritoneum. Contains blood vessels, lymphatics and

Urinary System 1. List the organs of the urinary system by locations and give the basic organ function. (1) The kidneys – The urinary system consists of two kidneys located in the middle of the back with one on each side of the body.

The ovaries are found only in women. They make the hormones estrogen and progesterone which help develop breasts at puberty, regulate the menstrual cycle, and support a pregnancy. The last gland in the endocrine system are the testes. The testes play a large role in making testosterone and also in making

The vagina and the urethra have no anatomical or functional relationship with the clitoris, and thus, the Gräfenberg spot’s existence does not make sense (Puppo,

(2013) utilized trans-labial ultrasound for their investigation. The trans-labial scans were performed using the same type of transducer, patient position, and preparation with semi-filled bladders before the scan. The partially filled bladder provided better evaluation of the lower uterine segment for identification of the placenta edge with regard to the inner OS (Elhawaryl et al., 2013). Except for the Pilloni et al.

A neural tube is where the brain and spinal cord form. During the first few weeks of pregnancy, an unborn baby is primarily made entirely of cells. Those cells start forming different body parts, and specific cells form the tube. This tube will go on to become part of the spinal cord, brain, and other structures such as the backbone. The top part of the tube is what the brain becomes, and the rest of the tube converts to the spinal cord.

The First Trimester During the first month of pregnancy the amniotic sac forms around the baby. The amniotic sac is filled with fluids that protect the baby throughout the pregnancy. The placenta will also form doing the first month of pregnancy. The placenta connects to the umbilical cord and will give him or her the nutrients, and will also take away the waste from the baby.

From looking upon the OED, ‘Womb’ is defined as “The abdomen or abdominal cavity of a person or animal; the belly/ also the anterior wall of the abdomen; and the uterus” (n). One of the memorable passage I have been drawn into is the lines Martius has said, “Reach me thy hand, that I may help thee out, or wanting strength to do thee
