Sr. No. Male reproductive system Female reproductive system
1. The testes are the primary reproductive organs and produce sperm and testosterone. The ovaries are the primary reproductive organs and produce ova, oestrogen and progesterone.
2. The sperm ducts transport sperm from the testes towards the urethra. The oviducts transport ova from the ovaries towards the uterus and are the usual site of fertilisation.
3. The penis transfers semen into the female reproductive tract during copulation. The vagina receives the penis and sperm, and also serves as the birth canal.
4. Male accessory glands add secretions to sperm to form semen. The uterus supports the development of the embryo, while the mammary glands produce milk after childbirth.
