Is asexual reproduction possible in higher animals like human beings?
Human cloning is possible though it has not been tried in any humans till now. However, reproduction without sexual contact is possible. But, it still includes both male and female reproductive fluids.
When yuu have an std does your vagina get dry?
It could. Usually it gets wetter, though. Like with weird discharge. If you have warts or gonnereah, there will be bumps and stuff. Take your temperature, see if you have a fever. If you do, you may have an STD. Anyways, if you have an std clinic nearby, you should probably get checked out, just to be sure.

Does contraction of uterus damage fallopian tube?
No contractions are natural to the female body and does not damage any organs.
Pathway along which an egg travels from the time of its release to its implantation?
The fertilized ovum moves through the fallopian tube to the uterus. Once at the uterus the blastocyst floats around until it finds a spot on the uterine lining to implant.
If you have no fallopian tubes can you get pregnant the old fashion way?
Not likely, the ovum matures in the ovary/follicle and travels down the fallopian tube, while the sperm travels from the uterus into the fallopian tube, the fertilized ovum travels back to the uterus via the same route.
Most of the time fertilization happens in the enclosed space of the fallopian tube or the follicle the ova matured in, before traveling to the uterus. In the case of surgical removal or scarred tubes from infection or ectopic pregnancy, the path between the ovary and the uterus has been lost. The mature ova would be lost in the abdominal cavity and be reabsorbed into the body.
If by chance the ripe ovum some how found it's way to the uterus and a sperm cell some how found the ovum, theoretically conception could occur. But, there are so many opportunities for attempted conception to fail under the best of conditions, for a pregnancy to be achieved without fallopian tubes playing their role - would most likely be mathematically impossible to calculate. (AKA a miracle.) That said it does seem obstetrical miracles happen so while I don't believe you can say you have a .0001% chance of conceiving naturally - if it happened that would be one determined little embryo.
Depending on your age, your best chance to achieve pregnancy will be for a fertility specialist to stimulate your ovaries, using micro surgery - remove the mature ovum and add sperm and the egg - for in-vitro fertilization - then place the fertilized ova (blastocyst) back into your body. Or in the case of "advanced maternal maturity" (over age 30 in some doctors opinion) - use donor eggs from a woman in her 20's - using in-vitro fertilization - place the fertilized egg into your womb.
Is cinnamon and poria safe to use to unblock fallopian tube?
Is cinnamon and proia safe to use to unblock fallopian tube, and does this really work or help?
When can human fertilization take place?
The ovum can be fertilized for about two days after ovulation in the female human, on average ovulation takes place every 28 days, It can be longer or shorter depending on the individual woman. Ovulation takes place half way through a woman's menstrual cycle. in other word if she starts her menstrual bleeding every 28 days, then she ovulates 14 days after the bleeding starts.

Which part of the sperm cell is most involved with penetration of the female sex cells?
The head of the sperm cell contains chromosomes, and at the leading end it has a cap, the ACROSOME, which contains enzymes necessary for the sperm cell to penetrate the female sex cell.
Answer- Acrosome

Is the unfertilized egg reabsorbed by the fallopian tube?
No it cannot, because it is not a somatic cell (typical epithelial). Egg is a gamete, that has a haploid DNA, haploid means only half of whats needed for a baby, the other half comes from the father. The egg dies and your gynecologist is guaranteed to have a patient for the next 20 or so years. The myth that it gets reabsorbed makes no sense because firstly it dies, decomposes, and since the DNA of the egg is incomplete, if it doesn't start decomposing healthy cells and your fallopian tubes, it may get reabsorbed inside the cell, causing a high risk of DNA entering the cell nucleus and cause a potential mutation that can mutate into an oncogene and hence lead to a cancerous growth.
What is true about sexual reproduction?
Haploid cells formed by meiosis combine to produce a diploid cell.
Habeas corpus is a human right that was afforded first in England and is now common worldwide. It is the right for a prisoner to have a fair trial.
This term generally refers to money donated to a charity with the provision that the principle will not be spent, but the income from the principle or corpus will be used for the charity.
Thus let's say someone donates $5M to a college. The $5M is the corpus funds and that money can't be spent by the college but instead it is set asside specially. However the $400,000 a year is generated in income from the $5M can be used by the college.
