Human Growth and Development / Unit 2 HGD 0174 short lesson, about 20 seconds
Gonads and Gametes
Captions available
The idea
Both sexes have gonads that make gametes: ovaries in females produce eggs, and testes in males produce sperm and the hormone testosterone.
In practice
Ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, cervix and vagina, beside testes, epididymis, vas deferens and urethra.
Where people slip
Sperm are stored in the epididymis until mature, then travel through the vas deferens.
