The female reproductive system consists of a pair of ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, cervix, and vagina.
Key Structures:
\[\begin{array}{rl} \bullet & \text{Ovaries: Produce eggs (ova) and hormones (estrogen, progesterone).} \\ \bullet & \text{Fallopian Tubes (Oviducts): Carry the ovum; fertilization occurs in the ampullary region.} \\ \bullet & \text{Uterus: Muscular organ where embryo implants and develops.} \\ \bullet & \text{Cervix: Lower part of uterus, opens into vagina.} \\ \bullet & \text{Vagina: Birth canal and site of copulation.} \\ \end{array}\]
Diagram (to be drawn in exam):
A neat, labeled diagram should include:
\[\begin{array}{rl} \bullet & \text{Ovaries} \\ \bullet & \text{Fallopian tubes (fimbriae, infundibulum, ampulla, isthmus)} \\ \bullet & \text{Uterus} \\ \bullet & \text{Cervix} \\ \bullet & \text{Vagina} \\ \end{array}\]
