In animals (including humans), the male sex organs include the testicles, epididymides, and penis; the female sex organs include the clitoris, ovaries, oviducts, and vagina. The testicle in the male and the ovary in the female are called the primary sex organs. [1] All other sex-related organs are known as secondary sex organs.

The stigma (pl.: stigmas or stigmata) [1] is the receptive tip of a carpel, or of several fused carpels, in the gynoecium of a flower.
