The common chamber into which the intestinal, urinary and reproductive duct discharge their contents, opening to the outside through the anus.
a sewage pipe; a common excretory cavity at end of hind-gut in embryos, and at the end of the intestine in adult birds, most fishes and monotremes.
Chamber into which digestive, reproductive and urinary systems empty, and then exit the body.
The common chamber into which the intestinal, urinary and reproductive ducts discharge their contents (Peters 1964).
Any of a spectrum of congenital defects that, in females, includes the bowel, the urinary, and reproductive tracts. See also anorectal malformations. Back to the
common duct for the passage of feces, urine and reproductive products in birds and reptiles. Also called a vent.
a cavity into which the alimentary canal and genitals and urinary ducts open.
An expanded, tubular structure that serves as the common opening of the digestive, reproductive and urinary systems in many vertebrates, including birds.
Latin = a drain, sewer; common opening for intestinal, urinary and genital tracts in lower vertebrates, it is a transitory structure in human embryological development.
Organ in some birds that serves a dual purpose as the end orifice for the alimentary canal and oviduct.
The common opening for reproduction and waste excretion.
The common chamber into which digestive and urinary wastes discharge.
chamber into which the intestinal, urinary, and reproductive tracts open
a common chamber that receives materials from the digestive, excretory, and reproductive systems
common opening of the reproductive, digestive and urinary systems that terminates at the anal opening.
a chamber in the lower part of the gut into which the ducts from the kidney and reproductive organs empty and having one external opening, the cloacal aperture, instead of separate anal (vent) and urinogenital openings
a common chamber where reproductive, intestinal and urinary ducts open to a vent or anus)
an excrementory cavity, a sewer, or, figuratively, a receptacle of moral filth
The common cavity and orofice where digestive, urinary and reproductive products are passed.
The cavity into which the urinary, alimentary and genital ducts open.
in amphibians, reptiles and birds, the anal opening that serves for both excreting and reproduction. Beavers also have a cloaca rather than the mammalian arrangement of a separate anus and reproductive opening.
Chamber into which urinary, digestive, and reproductive canals empty; opens to the exterior through the anus
Ventral cavity into which the urinary, intestinal, and reproductive tracts enter.
bird's single opening for solid and liquid wastes, as well as the reproductive cells (eggs or sperm).
Birds do not have two separate cavities for excrement and reproduction like humans do. In birds, there is one entrance/exit that suits both functions. It is also called anus or vent.
An organ into which an animal's digestive, urinary and reproductive systems empty, and that opens to the anus.
the combined orifice of the digestive and urogenital tracts in amphibians
A common opening for the digestive, urinary, and reproductive tracts in all vertebrates except most mammals.
common chamber at end of digestive and urogenital systems
The final enlargement of the digestive tract in birds, reptiles, amphibians, and many fish, through which solid wastes, urine, and the products of the reproductive system all pass prior to defecation, egg laying, or copulation. It opens just below the tail of birds and is also known as the vent. In humans, of course, the digestive passage is completely separate from the urinary and genital passages. When copulating, male Purple Martins merely contact the female's cloaca with theirs for as short a duration as a fraction of a second, which is long enough to successfully transfer their sperm to the female's reproductive tract.
The chamber found just inside the vent through which both solid and liquid wastes are voided.
lowest part of a bird's intestine into which urine, excrement and reproductive products are emptied.
A body opening that serves both for excretion and for the reproductive organs.
dumping ground” or chamber into which the reproductive, urinary, and digestive products enter just before leaving the body.
Opening under the tail through which the turtle performs fecal, urinary, and reproductive functions. Also see Vent.
joint opening of the digestive, urinary, and reproductive tracts. [see diagram].
The common chamber into which the intestinal, urinary and genital tracts discharge in birds, reptiles, amphibians and many fishes; also a phylogenetically related embryonic structure in mammals.
The vent or common opening in birds through which the digestive, urinary, and reproductive tracts empty.
In nematodes: A common duct or cavity in which the digestive and reproductive systems terminate in males. ( 14)
a chamber in the abdomen of some vertebrates that receives products of the reproductive, urinary, and digestive tracts before emptying to the exterior through the anus
A chamber that opens through the anus that is used for both excretion and reproduction.
a body opening for excreting and mating
the common chamber into which intestinal, genital and urinary canals open in vertebrates (except most mammals)
The single opening in birds used for both reproduction and excrement.
The hole which is also known as the vent. Contiains genitals, urinary and intestines.
Passage used for eliminating fecal, urinary and reproductive discharges
Term applied to posteriormost section of digestive tract in those tardigrades in which either oviduct or vasa deferentia open into rectum.
The single chamber through which the contents of the digestive, excretory, and reproductive systems pass. Opens to the outside at the vent (cloacal opening).
the chamber from which urinary and digestive waste is passed. It is under the anal plate. The organs of reproduction are also found here.
The posterior cavity of the digestive tract into which intestinal and urogenital ducts open.
The chamber just inside the vent where the digestive, reproductive, and excretory tracts come together.
The terminal part of the gut in most vertebrates except the higher mammals
