External
genitals in human males include the penis, scrotum, and
testicles
The
penis
is the male organ used for sexual reproduction and urination
The
penis
reaches its full size during puberty
The root of the penis is attached to the wall of the abdomen, while its shaft is comprised of
erectile tissue
Erectile tissue
is filled with blood during sexual arousal
Erectile
tissue causes the penis to become erect and rigid, prepared for coitus
The
glans penis
is the head of the penis, partially covered by the foreskin in uncircumcised males
The
urethra
is located at the tip of the glans penis
When the
penis
is erect, only semen will be ejaculated from the urethra, not urine
The
scrotum
is located behind the penis
The
scrotum
is loose and pouch-like, holding the testicles inside
The
scrotum
is located outside the body to provide a cooler temperature for the testes
Seminiferous tubules
are located within the testes and are where meiosis and the creation of male gametes occur
The
epididymis
is a tube that connects a testicle to the vas deferens
The
epididymis
is located at the back of each testis, where sperm cells mature, are carried, and stored
The
vas deferens
transports sperm from the epididymis to the urethra
The
testes
produce
testosterone
, the primary male sex hormone
Seminal vesicles
are small pouches that make seminal fluid, nourishing and aiding sperm travel
