subtype: #transverse_sinus__sinus_transversus__sinustransversu a paired dural sinus; terminates in the sigmoid sinus
subtype: #lacrimal_duct__lachrymal_duct__lachrymalduct__tear_duct any of several small ducts that carry tears from the lacrimal glands
subtype: #nasolacrimal_duct a duct that carries tears from the lacrimal sac to the nasal cavity
subtype: #Haversian_canal any of the many tiny canals that contain blood vessels and connective tissue and that form a network in bone
subtype: #hepatic_duct__hepaticduct the duct that drains bile from the liver
subtype: #inguinal_canal__canalis_inguinalis oblique passage through the lower abdominal wall; in males it is the passage through which the testes descend into the scrotum and it contains the spermatic cord; in females it transmits the round ligament of the uterus

subtype: #umbilical_cord__umbilicalcord membranous duct connecting the fetus with the placenta
subtype: #vagina the lower part of the female reproductive tract; a moist canal in female mammals extending from the labia minora to the uterus; "the vagina receives the penis during coitus"; "the vagina is elastic enough to allow the passage of a fetus"
