The female gamete or the ovum is produced in the ovaries. Once the ovum matures, it is pushed out of the ovary into the fallopian tube. Fallopian tubes are also called oviducts. The ovum remains in the fallopian tube for some time. The fertilised ovum grows into a baby in the uterus. The fully mature baby moves out of the body of the mother through the vagina. The penis helps wih the ejaculation.
