To compare and contrast the function of the urethra in male and female pigs, it is important to understand that the urethra serves the same purpose in both. The urethra functions to carry urine from the bladder to be expelled by the body. The urethra is also a part of the reproductive organs in male and female pigs.
in male rat,tubular vas deferens move sperms from the epididymus to the urethre and the urethra wil carry the sperm through the penis and out of body and acts as exit for urine.in female rat ,the urethra only function as an exit for urine.
The male urethra is significantly longer than the female urethra. Unlike the female urethra, it has a function in the reproductive system (carrying semen to the outside of the body) as well as a urinary function (carrying urine to the outside of the body.)
male urethra is long and female urethra is short
The female and male urethra function in the same way for urinary elimination. The female urethra is shorter in length than a male's, with the female urethra approximately 1 1/2 inches long and the male urethra approximately 8 inches long. Therefore, females can be more vulnerable to urinary tract and bladder infections since the pathway for germs from outside the body is shorter in females. Both males and females have sphincter muscles at the base of the bladder that control the release of the urine from the bladder to the urethra. In males, the urethra also functions as a tube for the release of semen in ejaculation. Their urethras intersect with the vas deferens, the tube that moves semen from the reproductive organs, at the area of the prostate gland. A valve at the base of the urethra directs the flow of either urine or semen through the urethral tube.
The female ones are larger, as female urethra is larger.

In males, it is the tube that conducts urine from the bladder through the penis to the outside of the body and it also conducts the semen from the reproductive organs for release in ejaculation.
The urethra is the passageway for semen as it leaves the male's body. In the male, the urethra carries semen and urine, while in the female the urethra only carries semen.
Male: Vas deferens Female: oviduct or fallopian tube
There isnt any reproductive function of tbe urethra
In a male, urine and seminal fluid; in a female, only urine.
There are several physiological differences between male and female urethras. One of the major differences is that a males urethra is longer than that of a female.
