Discuss male vs female comparison- both in anatomy AND
sperm
vs ovum comparison.
Comparison of Male and Female systems:
| Male | Female | 
| The male reproductive system consists of external organs. | The female reproductive system consists of internal organs. | 
| Male reproductive organ functions to produce sperms. | Female reproductive organ functions to produce ovum (eggs) | 
| The male reproductive system is located outside the body. | The female reproductive system is located inside the body. | 
| The hormones produced by the male reproductive system are androgen and testosterone. | The hormones produced by the female reproductive system are estrogen and progesterone. | 
| The important parts of male reproductive system are p.e.n.i.s, seminal vesicles, vas deferens, prostate gland etc., | 
 The important parts of female reproductive system are v.u.l.v.a, v.a.g.i.n.a, c.l.i.t.o.r.i.s, u.r.e.t.h.r.a etc.,  | 
| The main objective of male reproductive system is to produce sperm and deliver it to female for fertilization. | The main objective of female reproductive system is to produce ovum and to receive and fertilize the sperm from male. | 
| The male sperm is very small. | The female ovum is very large. | 
| The sperm can move. | The ovum cannot move. | 
| The sperm is long and motile and is differentiated into head and neck. | The ovum is non-motile and is not differentiated into different regions. | 
| The sperm in produced in testes. | The ovum is produced in ovaries. |
