The scrotum lies outside of the body between the thighs, exposing the testes to a lower temperature than the rest of the body. This lower temperature is necessary for the adequate maturation and development of sperm (spermatogenesis).
The scrotum is located outside the body, because sperm production requires a cooler temperature then the internal body. So, they are located outside to achieve the right temperature for the production of sperm.
I'm not sure there are any disadvantages, it is a matter of opinion really some people like it and others don't, but the main advantage is that the testicles are the perfect temperature outside to make sperm rather than body temp.
Male testes are located in the scrotum outside the body because viable sperm cannot be produced in abundance at core body temperature, 37 degrees celsius. This superficial location of the scrotum allows for temperatures approximately 3 degrees celsius lower.
because it is to hot to be inside the body the scrotum restores it
The location of the scrotum is important because it maintains a temperature of a few degress cooler than body temperature. That cooler temperature is needed to produce sperm.
Well the reason it's outside the body is temperature. It would be too warm inside the body, the area it is just outside the body has just the right temperature for sperm production
What is the significance of having the testis located in the scrotal sac
That's the scrotum.
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.
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.
The testicles are contained in the scrotum.
They are inside the scrotum.
The scrotum is the saclike part that hangs outside the male reproductive system. It is located outside the body in order to regulate the temperature of the testes.
Because anywhere else they wouldn't be able to do their job, and if they could it would be highly inefficient.Also they need to be kept cool to produce spearm,so that is why they are located outside of the body in the scrotum.To protect testicles from damage heat or cold. hence they are safe in scrotum.
In an adult male, or at least a male well into the stages of puberty, the testes are located within the scrotum. The scrotum is the sac external to the body that holds the testes, and lies below the penis.
They hang outside to control their temperature. When cold the scrotum contracts and so brings the testes closer to the body for warmth. When hot the scrotum sags so moving the testes away from the body for cooling.
Your testes descend from abdominal cavity to the scrotum. There is difference of one degree Celsius from body. It is lower in the scrotum. This one degree Celsius lower temperature is necessary for production of the sperms.
It holds the testis outside the body cavityhope this helps :)
It is the 'sac' that holds the rabbits testes
