<span>Penile shaft

</span>During erection, blood<span> flows into the spaces, causing distention and elevation of the penis. The amount of blood entering the penis can be increased by physical or psychological stimulation. As blood enters, there is a temporary reduction in the rate and volume of blood leaving the penis. The arteries carrying blood to the penis dilate; this, in turn, causes tissue expansion. The veins leading from the penis have funnel-shaped valves that reduce the outflow of blood. As the erectile tissue begins to enlarge, the additional pressure causes the veins to be squeezed against the surrounding fibrous tissue, and this further diminishes the outflow of blood. Essentially, blood becomes temporarily trapped in the organ.</span>

The answer is penile shaft. 

The penile shaft has 3 erectile columns. There are 2 corpus cavernosum and 1 corpus spongiosum. The skin is loose because those columns fill with blood and the skin will stretch and that's why it hardens. It is the changes in blood flow in the penis that results in an erection.

What conditions are possible reasons for declining genetic diversity of a species? Select all correct answers.
yan [13]

Some conditions that are possible reasons for declining genetic diversity of a species;

▪︎loss of habitat

▪︎inbreeding

Explanation:

Loss of habitat will definitely reduce diversity because it reduces the population size from increased competition for reduced resources. Some subspecies may be completely eliminated when their niche is completely lost.

Inbreeding also reduces diversity because it results in the expression of recessive genes in a population that are mostly disadvantageous. High inbreeding rates will result in most individuals not reaching maturity to pass down their genes to the next generations.
