Solution

  1. The given system is the Urinogenital System of the human female body.
  2.    
    1. Kidney
    2. Ureter
    3. Oviduct or fallopian tube
    4. Oviducal funnel
    5. Ovary
    6. Lining of uterus
    7. Urinary bladder
    8. Cervix
    9. Vagina
    10. Vulva
  3. Oviduct: Transport the ovum into the uterus; fertilisation occurs here, and the zygote travels down the uterus via the oviduct.
    Oviducal funnel: The released egg is picked up by the fimbriae (cilia) of the oviducal funnel of the oviduct.
    Ovary: It produces gg and the female hormones progesterone and oestrogen.
    Lining of uterus: It provides a surface for the implantation of a fertilised egg.
  4. If both Fallopian tubes are blocked, the ovary's ovum will not reach the oviduct, preventing fertilization.
