Can You Overdose on Ginger? Ginger, in capsules or as tea, can help ease the discomfort of discontinuing certain acid-suppressing drugs. The acid-suppressing drugs known as proton pump inhibitors are intended for treating serious acid reflux known as gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD.
Connected to each kidney is a ureter, a tube through which urine passes into the urinary bladder, a sac that stores urine until it passes out of the body through the cloaca. The organs of the male reproductive system are the testes, sperm ducts, and cloaca. Those of the female system are the ovaries, oviducts, uteri, and cloaca. The testes produce sperm, or male sex cells, which move through sperm ducts, tubes that carry sperm into the cloaca, from which the sperm move outside the body. The ovaries produce eggs, or female sex cells, which move through oviducts into the uteri, then through the cloaca outside the body.
1 Males have a longer thicker tail than females of the same species (when they are full grown). 2  The location of the cloaca is also different between male and female turtles. 3  The cloaca is the posterior opening that serves as the vent for both the intestinal and urinary tracts of certain animal species. The female is larger and more rounded than the male. 2  In larger species, such as boas and pythons, you may see spurs on either side of the cloacal vent. 3  The spurs will be much larger on a male than on a female; in fact, many females have little or no spurs at all.
