Explain the Reproductive System?
The human reproductive system produces not only reproductive organs and gametes, but also sex hormones, which have far-reaching effects on human development and metabolism. The gametes, or sex cells, are formed by meiosis in the gonads - sperm by spermatogenesis the male testes, and eggs by oogenesis in the female ovaries. We describe the reproductive system in both males and females, and the menstrual cycle in females.
