ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Within the context of producing offspring, the reproductive system has four functions: To produce egg and sperm cells. To transport and sustain these cells. To nurture the developing offspring.

Detailed explanation-2: -It’s called the reproductive system because it supports the development and growth of a baby.

Detailed explanation-3: -The male gamete, or sperm, and the female gamete, the egg or ovum, meet in the female’s reproductive system. When sperm fertilizes (meets) an egg, this fertilized egg is called a zygote (pronounced: ZYE-goat). The zygote goes through a process of becoming an embryo and developing into a fetus.

Detailed explanation-4: -A well-functioning circulatory system is required for reproductive function. Erections are started and maintained by the circulatory system working with the organs of the reproductive system. Additionally, the circulatory system transports hormones throughout the body so they reach the target receptors.
