It is an organ with muscular walls where the fertilised ovum grows into a fetus.	Uterus
It is the narrow part of the uterus that leads to the vagina.	Cervix
It is a muscular canal that leads from the vulva to the uterus. It is where the baby leaves the body during birth. It is also where sperm cells enter during fertilisation.	Vagina
The uterus and the vagina perform this every 28 days when puberty starts.	Menstrual cycle
During this process, the ovum starts to mature inside one of the ovaries.	Ovarian cycle
It happens the 14th day of the ovarian cycle, when the ovum leaves the ovary.	Ovulation
During this process, the walls of the uterus become thicker with extra tissue and blood.	Uterine cycle
This happens if the ovum is not fertilised during ovulation. The extra tissue and blood come away of the walls of the uterus and leave te body through the vagina.	Menstruation
It expels sperm cells and deposits them in the vagina.	Penis
They produce millions of sperm cells.	Testicles
It is a bag that contains the testicles.	Scrotum
They are two tubes that carry sperm cells from the testicles to the seminal vesicles, the prostate and the urethra.	Vas deferens

It is a large gland that produces a liquid that becomes part of the semen.	Prostate
It is a tube that goes from the bladder, through the prostate and out of the penis. It carries both semen and urine.	Urethra
It is the process through which a sperm cell reaches an ovum.	Fertilisation
It is a cell formed when the ovum and the sperm cell join in the fallopian tube.	Zygote
It is a group of cells formed when the zygote travels to the uterus and divides several times.	Embryo
It is the process between fertilisation and the birth of the baby. It lasts for about 40 weeks.	Pregnancy
It provides the fetus with oxygen and nutrients from the mother's blood. It is connected to the baby through the umbilical cord.	Placenta
It is a thin bag of tissue that contains a liquid and protects the fetus from impacts and vibrations.	Amniotic sac
It is a liquid contained in the amnionic sac to protect the baby from impacts and vibrations.	Amniotic fluid
It is the process through which the baby leaves the uterus through the vagina.	Birth
