The clitoris (/ ˈ k l ɪ t ər ɪ s / ⓘ or / k l ɪ ˈ t ɔːr ɪ s / ⓘ; pl.: clitorises or clitorides) is a female sex organ present in mammals, ostriches and other amniotes.. Although the clitoris exists in all mammal species, [1] [2] [3] most studies deal with the human clitoris - few detailed studies of the anatomy of the clitoris in non-humans exist. [4]
The mammalian female reproductive system contains three main divisions: the vagina and uterus, which act as the receptacle for the sperm, the ovaries, which produce the female's ova, and the vulva, which consists of the labia and clitoris. The vagina, uterus and ovaries are always internal while the vulva is external.
In the female cat, the genitalia includes the uterus, the vagina, the genital passages and teats. [dubious – discuss] Together with the vulva, the vagina of the cat is involved in mating and provides a channel for newborns during parturition, or birth. The vagina is long and wide. [34] Genital passages are the oviducts of the cat. They are ...
Birds have only one functional ovary (the left), while the other remains vestigial. In mammals including humans, the female ovary is homologous to the male testicle, in that they are both gonads and endocrine glands. Ovaries of some kind are found in the female reproductive system of many invertebrates that employ sexual reproduction. However ...
The round ligament of the uterus originates at the uterine horns, in the parametrium.The round ligament exits the pelvis via the deep inguinal ring. [3] It passes through the inguinal canal to reach the labium majus, [4] [5] [2] inserting into the fibro-fatty substance of the labium majus.
The human female reproductive system is a series of organs primarily located inside of the body and around the pelvic region of a female that contribute towards the reproductive process. The human female reproductive system contains three main parts: the vulva, which leads to the vagina, the vaginal opening, to the uterus; the uterus, which ...
The human female reproductive system is made up of the internal and external sex organs that function in the reproduction of new offspring. The reproductive system is immature at birth and develops at puberty to be able to release matured ova from the ovaries , facilitate their fertilization , and create a protective environment for the ...
