A female is born with eggs in the ovaries. Sex hormones during puberty prepare the eggs to move. An egg is released mid-cycle. The Fallopian tubes draw it into the tube, through which it travels to the uterus. If it will be fertilized, it should occur in the uterus. If fertilized, the egg tries to implant into the wall of the uterus, which has thickened in preparation for implantation. If not fertilized, the egg washes away during menses.

NOTE: Some women have fertilization when the egg is still in the Fallopian tube (a tubal pregnancy). This is a surgical emergency. The fertilized egg if left in the tube will rupture the tube, which can threaten a woman's life.

What are the function of female reproductive organ?

Well, first off, the female reproductive organ stores the the eggs that make up 50% of an offspring. However, the female reproductive system DOES NOT make eggs. A baby girl is born with all of her eggs and they are released when she hits puberty.The phelopian tube is the path that the eggs go down when they decompose, which is what happens to them all if they are not fertilized with semen. The womb part of the female reproductive system cushons/protects a baby if one is created.

ovary-oviduct-uterine enlargement-cloacaIn a female frogâ??s body, the ovaries make the eggs. The eggs then move though the oviducts and then they exit the frogâ??s body through the cloaca.Frogs lay their eggs in water. These hatch into tadpoles, which then turn into frogs who live on land. While in the female, eggs are made in the ovaries, then they move into the uterus, where they are fertilized.
