| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Body of Uterus | The body, or corpus, of the uterus is one of two major regions of the uterus, with the other major region being the cervix |
| Ovary | The female gonad or reproductive gland, in which the ova and the hormones that regulate female secondary sex characteristics develop. |
| Infundibulum | Any funnel-shaped part, esp the stalk connecting the pituitary gland to the base of the brain |
| Oviduct | either of a pair of tubes that transport the ova from the ovary to the exterior, the distal ends of which form the uterus and vagina in higher mammals |
| Horns of Uterus | The uterine horns are the points where the uterus and the fallopian tubes meet. |
| Cervix | any necklike part, especially the constricted lower end of the uterus. |
| Bladder | a membranous sac or organ serving as a receptacle for a fluid or air. |
| Vulva | the external female genitalia. |
| Vagina | the passage leading from the uterus to the vulva in certain female mammals. |
| Rectum | the comparatively straight, terminal section of the intestine, ending in the anus. |
| Bulbourethral Gland | Either of two small racemose glands in the male that are located below the prostate and discharge a component of the seminal fluid into the urethra. |
| Seminal Vesticles | The vesiculæ seminales are two lobulated membranous pouches, placed between the fundus of the bladder and the rectum, serving as reservoirs for the semen, and secreting a fluid to be added to the secretion of the testes |
| Vas Deferens | the duct that transports the sperm from the epididymis to the penis. |
| Prostate | relating to the prostate gland. |
| Penis | the male organ of copulation and, in mammals, of urinary excretion. |
| Scrotum | the pouch of skin that contains the testes. |
| Seminiferous Tubules | any of the coiled tubules of the testis in which spermatozoa are produced. |
| Tail of Epididymis | the tail is the narrow inferior portion of the epididymis; it joins with the ductus deferens. |
| Head of Epididymis | The head is the widest and most superior region, which receives sperm from the efferent ducts of the testis. |
| Symphysis of Pelvis | Analysis of the pelvis shows the skinny regions function as arches, transferring the weight of the upright trunk from the sacrum to the hips. |
