The reproductive system ensures the survival of the species. Other systems in the body, such as the endocrine and urinary systems, work continuously to maintain homeostasis for the survival of the individual. An individual may live a long, healthy, and happy life without producing offspring, but if the species is to continue, at least some individuals must produce offspring.
oviduct

Above is a microscopic photo of oviduct or also known as the fallopian or uterine tube. This is where the ovum passes through from the ovary going to the uterine cavity. It is made up of a smooth muscle wall, inner mucosal lining and the serosa which is an outer layer composed of loose supporting tissue. Oviducts are part of the genital tract.
