What to Focus On

  • Humans are sexually reproducing and viviparous.
  • Testis is the primary male sex organ.
  • Ovary is the primary female sex organ.

  • Testes are the primary male reproductive organs.
  • Scrotum keeps testes cooler for sperm formation.
  • Spermatogonia, Leydig cells, and Sertoli cells are the main cells of seminiferous tubules.

  • Cryptorchidism is failure of testes to descend.
  • Hydrocele involves fluid in tunica vaginalis.
  • Oligospermia and azoospermia can cause sterility.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The testis and epididymis are the same structure because both are found near sperm formation.

ICSH and LH are two separate hormones in males.

FSH acts on Leydig cells and LH acts on Sertoli cells.
