The Female Reproductive System. The female reproductive system provides several functions. The ovaries produce the female egg cells, called the ova or oocytes. The oocytes are then transported to the fallopian tube where fertilization by a sperm may occur. The fertilized egg then moves to the uterus, where the uterine lining has thickened in response to the normal hormones of the reproductive cycle. Once in the uterus the fertilized egg can implant into thickened uterine lining and continue to develop.
The function of semen, which is the fluid that contains sperm, is to transport and protect the sperm until one of them can fertilize the egg. It only takes one of the millions of sperm that make up the semen to fertilize the egg. In fact, only one sperm is even allowed to fertilize the egg. Once the lone sperm breaks through the eggâs wall, the egg then releases a special hormone that prevents any other sperm from entering the egg. The sperm then works its way to the center of the egg, where fertilization occurs.
