question 27
which female reproductive organ is homologous to the male testes?
uterus
clitoris
ovaries
labia
Brief Explanations
Homologous structures in biology are those that share a common embryonic origin. The ovaries in females and testes in males both develop from the same embryonic tissue (the gonadal ridge). The uterus is for pregnancy, the clitoris is related to the penis in terms of some embryonic origin (but not gonadal), and the labia have a different embryonic homology (related to the scrotum in part).
