(a) Corpus luteum: It is formed from the ruptured Grafiaan follicle. It secretes progesterone hormone during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle. A high level of progesterone inhibits the secretions of FSH and LH, thereby preventing ovulation. In addition, it allows endometrium of the uterus to proliferate and to prepare itself for implantation.

(b) Endometrium : It is the innermost lining of the uterus. It is rich in glands and undergoes cyclic changes during various phases of the menstrual cycle to prepare itself for the implantation of the embryo.

(c) Acrosome: It is a cap-like structure present in the anterior part of the head of the sperm. It contains hyaluronidase enzyme, which hydrolyses the outer membrane of the egg. Hence, the sperm penetrate into egg at the time of fertilization.

(d) Sperm tail: It is the longest region of the sperm that facilitates the movement of the sperm inside the female reproductive tract.

(e) Fimbriae: It has finger-like projections at the ovarian end of the fallopian tube. It involved in the collection of the ovum after ovulation, which is facilitated by the beating of the cilia.
