(MEG) glans ( head), shaft and root. The glans is particularly sensitive to
stimulation. During arousal, these become engorged with blood, resulting in
erection.

Testes, Vas deferens, seminal vesicles, ejaculatory ducts, prostate, urethra

34
Q

(MIG) – produce androgens, particularly large quantities of testosterone, which
greatly influence male development and drive sexual motivation

A

Testes

35
Q

(MIG) travels from testicle toward urethra carrying sperm.

A

Vas Deferens

36
Q

(MIG) two glands that produce alkaline fluid rich in fructose sugar,
comprising some 70% of semen volume

A

Seminal Vesicles

37
Q

(MIG) connect vas deferens to urethra

A

Ejaculatory ducts

38
Q

(MIG) gland producing alkaline secretions that account for about 30% of
semen volume

A

Prostate

39
Q

(MIG) tube within penis that carries sperm and semen the rest of the way to
the opening of penis

A

Urethra

40
Q

What is the major male hormone produced mainly by
the testes

A

Testosterone

41
Q

What are other glands in males that also produce some testosterone

A

Adrenal glands

42
Q

responsible for the
growth and development of a boy during adolescence and for the
development of sperm and secondary sexual characteristics

A

testosterone

43
Q

Emerge after puberty: no monthly cycle, elongation of vocal cords, broader shoulders,
deeper chest cavity and generally taller and greater proportion of body weight
composed of water, proportionately larger heart and lungs, presumably to handle greater
