In order for perishable food to be safe for consumption, it has to reach a USDA-recommended minimum safe internal temperature. The food also has to be held at the specified temperature for a minimum of 15 seconds to kill the bacteria.
Food
Safe Internal Temperature:
Steak and Roast 145°F
Fish 145°F
Pork 160°F
Ground Beef 160°F
Egg Dishes 160°F
Chicken Breasts 165°F
Whole Poultry 165°F
Casseroles/Mixed Dishes 165°F
The reason for the different food safety temperatures has to do with food density, size and how much it is handled before it is cooked. For example, steak can be cooked to a lower temperature than ground beef because the inner layers of the beef are never touched. Since the outer and inner layers of ground beef are mixed together, a higher temperature is needed to assure that all of the bacteria is dead.

The Testes are responsible for the production of sperm. The Epididymis is the next stage of sperm production and utilization; and is used for storage of sperm. The seminal vesicle, at the end of the Vas Deferens as the sperm is about to be ejected produces a substance that increases the motility of the sperm. The last organ to contribute to the sperm would be the Prostate, which provides nourishment to the sperm
