Male reproductive system anatomy


The male reproductive system consists of a number of sx organs that play a role in the process of human reproduction . These organs are located on the outside of the body and within the pelvis.The main male sx organs are the penis and the testicles which produce semen and sperm, which,
as part of sxual intercourse, fertilize an ovum in the female's body; the fertilized develops into a fetus, which is later born as an infant.The corresponding system in females is the female reproductive system.The pnis is the male intromittent organ. It has a long shaft and an enlarged bulbous-shaped tip called the glans pe, which supports and is protected by the foreskin. When the male becomes sxually aroused, the pnis becomes erect and ready for sxual activity. Erection occurs because sinuses within the erectile tissue of the pnis become filled with blood. The arteries of the pnis are dilated while the veins are compressed so that blood flows into the erectile cartilage under pressure. The pnis is supplied by the pudendal artery.The scrotum is a pouch-like structure that hangs behind the pnis. It holds and protects the tsticles. It also contains numerous nerves and blood vessels. During times of lower temperatures, the Cremaster muscle contracts and pulls the scrotum closer to the body, while the Dartos muscle gives it a wrinkled appearance; when the temperature increases, the Cremaster and Dartos muscles relax to bring down the scrotum away from the body and remove the wrinkles respectively.
