    Study Notes

    Male Reproductive System

    • The deferent duct lies in the spermatic cord.
    • The tunica vaginalis forms the outer covering of the testis.
    • The function of the tunica vaginalis is to encase and protect the testes.

    Sperm Transport

    • The vas deferens transports sperm from the testes to the urethra.
    • The primary function of the male reproductive system is to produce and deliver sperm.

    Glands and Semen

    • The seminal vesicles contribute to the composition of semen.
    • The function of the seminal vesicles is to produce secretion for sperm nutrition.
    • The seminal vesicles are located lateral to the bladder.
    • The prostate gland is responsible for producing the majority of seminal fluid.
    • The bulbo-urethral glands produce pre-ejaculate fluid.

    Testes

    • The tunica albuginea is a dense fibrous covering of the testis.
    • The parenchyma of the testis is divided into lobules by septula.
    • Each testis typically contains 250-300 lobules.
    • The function of Leydig cells is to produce androgens.
    • The convoluted seminiferous tubules support spermatogenesis.

    Epididymis

    • Sperm mature and become motile in the epididymis.
    • The epididymis is located posteriorly to the testis.
    • The epididymis is connected to the deferent duct by the rete testis.
    • The length of the deferent duct is 40-50 cm.

    Spermatic Cord

    • The spermatic cord is divided into three parts.
    • The deferent duct becomes the ejaculatory duct at the ampulla.

    Scrotum

    • The scrotum is located between the thighs.
    • The dartos muscle regulates temperature in the scrotum.
    • The cremasteric fascia is derived from the abdominal fascia.
