The temperature needed for the sperms to survive and thrive is lower than the optimum body temperature , hence it is not possible to maintain a lower temperature inside the body hence the testes are located outside the body.
The sacs located outside the body and in which the testes are suspended are called the scrotum. The scrotum is a pouch-like structure that contains the testicles and helps regulate their temperature for proper sperm production and development.
It is the 'sac' that holds the rabbits testes
They are produced in testis.Testis are located outside from body
Your core body temperature would prevent sperm production. Descending from the body cavity keeps the testes cool enough to function. Testicular cancer is said to be another risk, though the medical community is unsure as to whether that is related to the testes being undescended, or more related to the underlying cause of why the testes didn't descend. It is possible that having undescended testes in and of itself is not the cause for testicular cancer in those cases, but the underlying cause for the birth condition. One transsexual person decided to have SRS surgery to have a vagina created without having her testes removed. So she had the surgeon to relocate her testes inside her body. Because of the above concern about cancer, she has ultrasounds down every couple of years to inspect them.
Testes are housed outside the body in the scrotum because sperm production requires a slightly lower temperature than the rest of the body. By being outside, the testes can remain a few degrees cooler, which is necessary for optimal sperm production and function.
The testes are located outside of the body because the bodies temperature is too high for the testes and the scrotum has a lower temperature for them to be able to produce sperm.
That's the scrotum.
The testicles are contained in the scrotum.
Sperm production requires an environment that is neither too hot or too cold. The cremaster muscles are those that will raise or lower the scrotal sac. If the testes are too warm, the cremaster muscles loosen and the scrotal sac will hand lower. If the testes are too cold, the cremaster muscles will control and draw them up closer to the body for warmth. So it's all about temperature control.
If the testes are not maintained at a temperature about 2 °C lower than body temperature the process of spermatogenesis will not take place, so that is why it is important for the testes to descend into the scrotum during maturation.

Ostriches have their testes inside of them, not outside. As for size, they could be about the size of a baseball.

The most common disadvantage of being color blind is not being able to see all colors.
It's due to the cooling effect of having the testes outside the main portion of the body. Testes need a slightly lower temperature than the rest of the body, for ideal functioning. Overheating will reduce fertility.
The testes are the male gonads that are located outside the body. They produce spermatozoa and testosterone. The ovaries are the female gonads that are located on the inside of the body. They produce ova, estrogen and progesterone.
