Usually, however, special glands, the ovaries and testes, are developed, which perform no other function than that of secreting ova and spermatozoa (Echinoderms). As a rule, however, there are found associated with the male and female generative glands accessory structures and a more or less com- plicated arrangement of ducts, which discharge definite functions in connection with the development of the generative products subse- quent to their separation from the glands, and ensure a suitable meeting between the male and female elements (fig 90). The ovaries are provided with ducts, the oviducts, which are not rarely derived.
