Human Reproduction

CT1. How could you redesign the male reproductive system so that the path of urine and the path of sperm are separate?



CT2. Animals that reproduce in water typically do not have a penis. What advantage does a penis serve for humans, who reproduce on land? The penis has what disadvantage?


CT3. How could you redesign the female reproductive system so that the vagina is not both the organ of copulation and the birth canal?

CT4. Following menopause, females stop producing eggs and cannot get pregnant. Males produce sperm their entire lives. Relate this discrepancy to differences in the reproductive function and expected behaviour of the sexes.
