Spermatogenesis
is the process by which human sperm cells are produced in the
seminiferous tubules
of the testes.
Scrotum
It consist of skin, Beneath a skin are loose connective tissues and a layer of smooth muscle called
Dartos
Testes
are
oval organs
whitin a
scrotum 4-5
cm
long;
which
sperm
cell
developed
Testes
produced
androgens
example is
Testosterone
Testes Leydig Cells
(
interstitial cells
)
Epididymis
is a
coiled tube
that lies on top of the
testes
Vas deference
emerges from the
epididymis
and ascends along the
posterior side
of
testes
Seminal vesicle
a pair of
glands
that secrete a liquid of component of
semen
into
vas deference
Secretion
is
alkaline
contains
fructose
,
ascorbic Acid
,
coangulating enzyme
, and
prostaglandin
Bulbo-urethral gland
is also known as
Cowper's gland
Prostate Gland
is located below
bladder
and surrounds
urethra
Bulbourethral gland
acts to
wash residual urine
out of the
urethra
when
ejaculating
semen
Ejaculation
is the process by which
semen
is expelled through
penis
during
sexual intercourse
or
masturbation
Semen
is made up of
spermatozoa
and
secretions
from
accessory sex organs
Testes
are
oval shaped structures
found within
scrotum
The male reproductive system consists of
external genitalia
(
penis
) and
internal genitalia
(
testes
)
The
male genitalia
include the
penis
,
scrotum
,
testes
,
epididymis
,
vas deferens
,
prostate gland
,
bulbourethral glands
, and
seminal vesicles.
The
male genitalia
are involved in
reproduction
and
excretion.
Urethra
is a tube that transports both
urine
and
semen
penis
function is to
transfer sperm cell
to
Vagina
Penis

Male Ejaculatesabout
2-5
ml of semen; each millimeter containing about
50-130
million sperms
