Detailed explanation-1: -They produce, maintain and transport sperm (the male reproductive cells) and semen (the protective fluid around sperm). They discharge sperm into the female reproductive tract. They produce and secrete male sex hormones.
Detailed explanation-2: -Transport through the male reproductive tract: During the emission phase, sperm and testicular fluids are transported to the ductus deferens (aka, vas deferens), which is a long muscular tube that, via peristaltic contractions, transports the sperm to the ejaculatory duct.
Detailed explanation-3: -The main function of the reproductive system is reproduction, and this is accomplished through the production of gametes. Hormone production and distribution, and providing passageways for sexual intercourse are also functions of the reproductive system, but these are not the primary function.
Detailed explanation-4: -Fallopian tubes: Uterine tubes that transport egg cells from the ovaries to the uterus. Fertile eggs are released from ovaries into fallopian tubes during ovulation and typically fertilized from there.
