Answer to Question 1

The corpora cavernosa penis are two columns that stand side-by-side and form the greatest part of the penis, and the third column is the corpus spongiosum.

Answer to Question 2

The ovaries produce estrogen and progesterone. Estrogen is the female sex hormone secreted by the ovaries. This hormone is essential for promoting the growth, development, and maintenance of secondary female sex organs and characteristics. Progesterone is the hormone that prepares the uterus for pregnancy.
