Answer» Male Reproductive System: The male reproductive system in human beings is composed of following parts:Testis: There is a pair of testes; which lie in a skin pouch; called *******. ******* is suspended outside the body; below the abdominal cavity. This helps in maintaining the temperature of testes below the body temperature. This is necessary for optimum sperm production. Testis primarily serves the function of sperm production. Sperms are the male gametes. Apart from that, testis also produces testosterone. Testosterone is also called the male hormone, as it is responsible for developing certain secondary sexual characters in boys.Vas Deferens: Vas deferens is the tube which carries sperms to the seminal vesicle.Seminal Vesicle: This is the place where sperms are stored. Secretions from the seminal vesicle and prostate gland add up to make the semen.*****: It is a muscular organ which serves the genitor-urinary functions. The urethra works as the common passage for urine as well as for sperms.Female Reproductive System: The female reproductive system in human beings is composed of following parts:Uterus: This is pear-shaped hollow muscular organ. Uterus is the place where the embryo gets implanted and develops into a newborn baby. The wall of the uterus provides safety and nutrition to the growing foetus.Fallopian Tubes: One fallopian tube comes out from each side at the top of the uterus. The fallopian tubes end in finger-like structures; called flimbriae. Fertilization happens in the fallopian tube.Ovary: There are two ovaries; one near each fallopian tube. Ovary produces the eggs or the female gametes. All the eggs are produces by the ovary when the female child is still in the womb. One egg matures in each ovulation cycle and is released from the ovary. The egg is caught by the flimbriae and transferred to the fallopian tube.******: The cervix (mouth of the uterus) opens into the ******. ****** is a muscular tube-like organs; which serves as the passage for the sperms and also as the canal during the child birth.\xa0
