Study Notes
Reproductive System
- The testes are located outside of the abdominal cavity, within the scrotum.

- Spermatogenesis, the process of sperm cell production, occurs in the seminiferous tubules within the testes.
Sperm Transport
- The epididymis is responsible for carrying sperm from the testis to the ejaculatory ducts.
Seminal Vesicles
