 To Produce , maintain and transport sperm(the male
reproductive cells and protective fluid semen).

To discharge sperm within the female reproductive

tract.

To produce and secrete male sex hormones.

External Structure: most of the Male
reproductive system is located outside of the mans
abdominal cavity or pelvis. The external structures are
the penis, the scrutom and the testicles.
 Penis the male organ for sexual intercourse . It has
three parts the root which attaches the wall of the
abdomen , the body or shaft and the Glans which is
the cone shape end of the penis.

The Glans - which is also called the head of the

penis , is covered with a loose skin called foreskin .
This skin is sometimes removed in a process called
circumcision (tuli).
 The opening of the urethra , the tube that transport
semen and urine , is at the tip of the glans penis.

Semen which contains sperm is

expelled(ejaculated ) through the end of the penis
when the man reaches sexual climax (orgasm). When
the penis is erect, the flow of urine is blocked from the
urethra allowing only semen to be ejaculated at
orgasm.
 Scrotum the loose pouch-like skin that hangs
behind the penis. Acts as a climate control system for
the testes . For normal sperm development , the testes
must be at temperature slightly cooler than the body
temperature.
Testicles oval organs about the size of very large
olives that lie in the Scrutom. Most men have two
testes, that are responsible for making testosterone ,
the primary male sex hormones and for producing
sperm.
 Epididymis a long coiled tube that rest on the
backside of each testicle. It functions in the carrying
and storage of the sperm cells that are produces in the
testes and also the Epididymis is to bring the sperm to
maturity.
 Vas deferens transports mature sperm to the
urethra in preparation for ejaculation.
Ejaculatory Ducts the ejaculatory ducts
empty into the urethra.
Urethra expelling semen when the man reaches
orgasm , when the penis is erect during sex.
Seminal vesicles produces a sugar rich fluid
(fructose) that provides sperm with a source of energy
and helps with the sperms ability to move.
 Prostate Gland contributes additional fluid to
the ejaculation and also helps to nourished the sperm
.

Bulbourethral Glands produces a clear

slippery fluid that empties directly into the urethra,
this fluids serves to lubricate the urethra and to
neutralize any acidity that may be present due to
residual drops of urine in the urithra.
