In humans, males and females have different reproductive systems and sex organs

Ovulation and Fertilisation
In the female one of the ovaries produces an egg every 28 days. This is called ovulation.
During sexual intercourse sperm is ejaculated into the vagina.
If the sperm and egg meet the sperms nucleus will join with the eggs nucleus. This is called fertilisation.

The Placenta
It forms a plate-like structure called the placenta.The umbilical cord joins the fetus to the placenta.In the placenta food and oxygen diffuse from the mothers blood into the blood of the fetus. Carbon dioxide and waste products diffuse from the blood of the fetus to the mothers blood.
How does the embryo get food and oxygen and how does it get rid of waste?

Puberty
Human children are born with a complete set of sex organs. However they do not become active until later in life.
Between 10 and 18 the testes start to make sperm and the ovaries start to make eggs.
This time of development in their life is called PUBERTY.
As well as these changes other changes may also occur.

Puberty in Boys

One change that happens to girls at puberty is that they start to undergo a monthly cycle called the menstrual cycle.
This cycle is a process where the uterus lining builds up to receive a fertilised egg.
If an egg is not fertilised then the lining of the uterus breaks down and is lost from the body. This is called menstruation or a period.
