Question

Which best describes the testes? They produce hormones and sperm. They are the male copulatory organ. They give sperm nourishment and motility. They are the pouch-like skin that protects the scrotum.

Answer 1

Answer

They produce hormones and sperm

Explanation

The Testes are a pair of ovoid glandular organs which are responsible for the production of sperm cell and the male sex hormone called testosterone. The testes produce 12 trillion sperm in a male’s life time. A single ejaculation releases 400 million sperm. Testes are therefore the major reproductive organs of the male. The epididymis nourishes the sperm themselves. The scrotum is the pouch like skin that protects the testes. Copulatory has to do something with sexual activities
