a. Introduction What I need to know?
At the end of this lesson, you are expected to describe the parts of female
reproductive system and their functions. (S5LT-IIa-1)

What’s New?
(Puzzle pieces)

Learners will look and arrange the puzzle pieces scattered around the area
and identify its name parts.

b. Development What’s in?

Find and encircle the following words in the puzzle below.
uterus vagina ovary
fallopian tube cervix
What is it?
The Female Reproductive System
The female reproductive system is made of several organs which
include the ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, and vagina. It is specifically
responsible for producing egg cells and supporting a developing baby inside
a mother’s womb.

The egg cell is only one-tenth of a

millimeter, about the size of the diameter of a
hair strand. It is the biggest cell in the female
human body.

Parts of the Female Reproductive System

The illustration below shows the parts of the female reproductive system.

Ovary
The ovary produces egg cells as well as the female sex hormones
estrogen and progesterone. Female humans have two ovaries. About 70,
000 potential egg cells are already present in the ovaries of a female when
she is born. However, only about 500 of these eggs will mature.
The mature eggs are released one by one every month once the
female reaches puberty and until she is about 43 – 55 years old. The mature
egg cell leaves the ovary through the fallopian tube.

Fallopian tube
The fallopian tubes lead the egg from the ovary to the uterus. This is
also the usual site of fertilization of the egg cell and sperm cell. Female
humans have two fallopian tubes, each connecting to an ovary to the side of
the uterus.

Uterus
Also called the womb, the uterus is a hollow muscular organ located at the
lower abdomen. It has a soft, smooth inner lining called the uterine or
 endometrium. This lining becomes thicker as it accumulates blood and
nutrients to accommodate the unborn baby as it develops. It is also the site
where the fertilized
egg is implanted. If the egg cell is not fertilized it, together with the uterine
lining, it will break down and is discharged during menstruation.

Cervix
The cervix is located at the lower part of the uterus. It is a narrow opening
between the uterus and the vagina. During childbirth, it expands to allow the
passage of the baby.

Vagina
Also called the birth canal, the vagina is a hollow, muscular tube that
extends from the cervix to the vaginal opening called vulva. It expands to let
the baby pass during normal delivery.
c. Engagement What’s more?
Activity 1
Directions: Identify the part of the female reproductive system that is being
described in each of the statements below.
1. It is called as the oviduct.
2. It produces egg cells and the sex hormones estrogen and progesterone.
3. It is a narrow opening between the uterus and vagina.
4. It is also called the womb.
5. It is also called the birth canal.

Activity 2
Directions: Label the parts of the female reproductive system.

d. Assimilation What I have learned?

A. Match the functions in Column A with the parts of female reproductive
system in Column B.
Column A Column B
1. A tube that leads the egg cell from the ovary a. Cervix
to the uterus. b. Endometrium
2. A hollow muscular tube that leads to the c. Ovary
vulva. d. Fallopian tube or
3. A narrow opening between the uterus and oviduct
vagina. e. Uterus
4. Releases the egg cells and hormones like f. Vagina
estrogen and progesterone.
5. Shaped like an upside-down pear, it is where
the fertilized egg cell develops into fetus.

B. Write T if the statement is true. Change the underlined word to make it

correct if the statement is false.
1. Egg cell is the biggest cell in the female human body.
2. Female humans only have one ovary.
 3. Three mature egg cells are released every month once the female reaches
puberty.
4. The mature egg cell leaves the ovary through the oviduct.
5. Fertilization happens in the oviduct.

What I can do?

Directions: Draw the male and female reproductive organs on a sheet of
paper. Label the parts and write their functions.

V. Reflection The learners, in their notebook, journal or portfolio will write their personal
insights about the lesson using the prompts below.
1. I understand that ____________________________.
2. I can say that ______________________________.
3. I realize that _______________________________.
