Solution

Dear student,
(1) True.
(2) False. One egg is released from either of the two ovaries.
(3) True.
(4) False. Egg is passed down through the oviduct by ciliary muscles which push forward the egg.
(5) True - The clitoris is the human female's most sensitive erogenous zone and generally the primary anatomical source of human female sexual pleasure. The penis and the clitoris are related in structure to one another. In fact, they actually originate from the same developmental tissue. Glans clitoris and the glans penis each contain some 7,000 sensory nerve endings.

Regards.
