Produce ova
Solution
The answer is the last one: Produce ova.
Explanation for each option:
Birth of a baby: This is a function of the vagina. During childbirth, the baby passes through the vagina, which is often referred to as the birth canal.
Discharge menstrual fluid: This is a function of the vagina. Menstrual fluid is expelled from the body through the vagina during menstruation.
Receive the penis during intercourse: This is a function of the vagina. The vagina receives the penis during sexual intercourse.
Produce ova: This is NOT a function of the vagina. Ova, or eggs, are produced by the ovaries, not the vagina.
In summary, the vagina does not produce ova; this function is performed by the ovaries.
