As mammals our aerobic metabolic system requires oxygen for us to sustain life. The organ that transports oxygen from the environment into the body where it is needed‚ are the lungs. Oxygen is transported through cellular respiration from the lungs to tissues and organs. Between 2‚100 to 2‚400 gallons of air is breathed to fuel 2‚400 gallons of blood that is pumped into the heart. Respiration is controlled by the medulla oblongata‚ which deals with the autonomic function of breathing. This characteristic

Anatomy of the Female Reproductive System The reproductive role of the female is far more complex than that of a male. Not only must she produce gametes‚ but her body must prepare to nurture a developing embryo for a period of approximately nine months. Ovaries‚ the female gonads‚ are the primary reproductive organs of a female‚ and like the male testes‚ ovaries serve a dual purpose: They produce the female gametes (ova) and sex hormones‚ the estrogens * and progesterone (pro-ges′tĕ-rōn).
