8 important questions on Reproductive system - Male reproductive system
Which hormones are released for spermiogenesis?
How are the bag of skin called that carry the testes and why are they located there?
The reason why the test are located in bag of skin is because sperm need temperature between 2-10 degrees (lower than the body temperature to develop), that's why the balls hangs below the body and where evaporation of secretions from special glands can further reduce the temperature.
Of how much sperm does semen consist of?
- Higher grades + faster learning
- Never study anything twice
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
What are the three accessory glands involved in producing secretion in which sperm are suspended?
- Seminal vesicle (important in rats, bulls boars, and stallions but not present in cats or dogs)
- produce secretion that maks up much of the volume of the semen and transport/provide nutrients for the sperm
- Prostate gland (important in humans and dogs)
- produces an alkaline secretion that neutralises the acidity of the male urethra and female vagina
- Cowper's gland (bulbourethral gland)
- secretion may lubricate, flush out urine or form a gelatinous plug that traps the semen in the female reproductive system after copulation and prevents other males os the same species fertilising an already mated female (absent in bears)
What is in the penis of dogs, bears, seals, bats and rodents?
What are the three parts sperm is made up of?

- Midpiece, containing many mitochondria to provide the energy
- Tail, provide propulsion
What is the difference between infertility and impotence?
Impotence, is the inability to copulate (having sexual intercourse) successfully
What is inseminate females?
