- Sexual reproduction produces offspring by the formation and fusion of gametes.
- Gametes are specialised sex cells with a single set of chromosomes.
2

- Testis is the male gonad and produces sperm.
- Each testis is approximately 4-5 cm long and about 12 g in weight in an adult male.
- Testes are present in the scrotal sac outside the abdomen.

Female Reproductive System
- Ovary is the female gonad and produces ova.
- Each ovary contains germinal epithelium, stroma, and follicles.
- Ovary is the site of oogenesis.
