The left testicle hangs lower. Several years ago, Chris McManus published a paper in Nature magazine, called "Scrotal Asymmetry in Man and in Ancient Sculpture" (Nature 259, 426 (05 February 1976); doi:10.1038/259426b0.) By extensive fieldwork and measurement of statues he determined that many Greek sculptors confused the left and the right when it came to representations of the male nude. Medical studies on real people confirm the left testicle, though smaller, hangs lower than the larger right testicle. While this is counter-intuitive ( surely gravity would attract the bigger the testicle more forcefully and bring it closer to the ground). The Greeks of old however were not into field work and observation but relied on intuition and aesthetics to guide them.

∙ 14y agoYour testes are the two oval structures inside your scrotum, or... they are the balls in your ballbag. Generally, in most boys and men, the left testes is a little larger and hangs lower than the right one, which helps to avoid them bashing against each oter.

∙ 13y agoIt is normal for one testicle to be slightly larger than the other, though having said that I'd highly recommend you consult a medical professional rather than chance your life with an answer from the internet...

A bricklayer has 8 bricks Seven of the bricks weigh the same amount and 1 is a little heavier than the rest If the man has a balance scale how can he find the heaviest brick in only 2 weightings?
Weigh 3 on one side, and 3 on the other. You have three options: left side is heavier, right side is heavier, both are equal. If they are equal, the heaviest brick is one of the remaining two. If one of the sides is heavier, weigh one on each side. Once again, you have three options: left side is heavier, right side is heavier, or both weigh the same. In the latter case, the third brick is the heaviest brick.

The left kidney is larger (and thus heavier) because the liver is above the right kidney and therefore it has less room to develop.
