Q

FUNCTIONS OF MALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM

A
  1. The testes produce sperm and the male sex
    hormone testosterone..
  2. The ducts transport, store, and assist in maturation
    of sperm.
  3. The accessory sex glands secrete most of the liquid
    portion of semen.
  4. The penis contains the urethra, a passageway for
    ejaculation of semen and excretion of urine.
