scientific name of (1)womb (2)birth canal
Fertilisation normally takes place in the mother's Fallopian tube, which connects the uterus (womb) with the ovary. The mother's labour begins as (following hormonal signals including that from the placenta) the muscular uterus contracts to expel the baby. The cervix (neck of the womb) gradually opens to allow the baby to pass into the vagina (birth canal).
