The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Primary Sex Organs**: - Primary sex organs are the main reproductive organs that are directly involved in the production of gametes (sperm in males and eggs in females) and hormones. 2. **Identifying Female Primary Sex Organs**: - In females, the primary sex organs are the ovaries. They are responsible for producing eggs (ova) and the female sex hormones. 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - The options provided are: a) Mammary glands b) Ovaries c) Ovaries and oviducts - Among these, mammary glands are not primary sex organs; they are accessory glands involved in milk production. Oviducts (fallopian tubes) are involved in the transport of eggs but are not considered primary sex organs. 4. **Confirming the Correct Answer**: - Since the ovaries are responsible for producing eggs and hormones (estrogen and progesterone), they are classified as the primary female sex organs. 5. **Final Answer**: - Therefore, the correct answer is **Ovaries**. ---
