All species reproduce. In humans, both males and females play a vital role in reproduction. The are several key body parts in both genders structured perfectly in order to conceive, house, and give birth to a baby.
MALE:
The role of the male in reproduction is to impregnate the female with his semen, in order to fertilize and egg and form a baby in the woman of the female.

PENIS: The penis is the male sexual organ. Before sexual intercourse it swells up with blood and become erect, ready to offload semen into the females’ reproductive system in order to reproduce.
TESTES: One of the most important parts of the male reproductive system. The testes produce semen – enabling the male to impregnate the female, and testosterone, the male hormone.
SCROTUM: The scrotum is a pouch like body part protecting the testes.
EPYDIDYMIS: Several coiled tubes which store semen before it is pumped through the vas deferens and other glands.
VAS DEFERENS (SPERM DUCT): The vas deferens transports the semen in an ejaculation from the epididymis to the prostate gland, where the semen is diluted with a thick, white, sticky substance in which it can move more freely. The semen is then pumped through the urethra; the same structure in which urine passes through, and then out of the penis.
FEMALES:
The role of the female in sexual reproduction is to be fertilized by a male’s semen, and then house the organism as it passes through the stages of becoming a gamete, zygote, blastocyst , embryo, foetus, and eventually a baby.

OVARIES: The ovaries of a female are undoubtedly the most vital structure in the female reproductive system. The ovaries produce the female hormones; progesterone and oestrogen, and eggs, which will later be fertilized by male semen and form a baby if the female has sexual intercourse.
UTERUS: The uterus is a hollow organ designed to house a baby growing in the female. During menstruation; which takes place periodically approximately every 28 days, a thick layer of blood builds up along the wall of the uterus in preparation for a male semen to implant in it. However if the female is not fertilized the wall along the uterus falls out through the vagina in whats commonly known as a ‘period’.
FALLOPIAN TUBES: The fallopian tubes are responsible for the transportation of an egg in ovulation from the ovaries to the uterus.
VAGINA: During sexual intercourse with a male, the vagina is penetrated by the male penis, thus resulting in the male ejaculating and sending semen through the females vagina and into the uterus where it will fuse with an egg and form a baby.
