Reproductive
Systema genitale
The reproductive system is responsible for producing offspring. In males, it includes the testes, epididymis, vas deferens, prostate, and penis. In females, it includes the ovaries, uterine tubes, uterus, and vagina. The system produces gametes (sperm and ova), sex hormones, and in females provides the environment for embryonic and fetal development.
