As we have already discuused in Uterus & Vagina -

Vagina:

  • Is a tubular structure, 10-12 cm long and extends from the cervix to the outside of the body. 
  • It receives the sperm during copulation, is the passage for menstrual flow and forms the birth canal during labour. 
  • The hymen is the membranous structure which covers the opening of the vagina – the vaginal orifice. 
  • The vagina is lined by non-keratinised stratified squamous epithelium. 
  • Glands are absent in the vaginal wall.

Hence, the correct answer is (c).
