Male reproductive system of human
In human male reproductive system, the reproductive organs are as follows:
Testes, different types of duct systems and glands.
Testes are in pair. Each testis lies in the scrotum which lies outside to abdominal cavity.
Testes -consist of numerous seminiferous tubules. The germinal epithelium of seminiferous tubules form sperms by undergoing meiosis.
These sperm cells are immature.
They are pushed gradually through various duct systems till the penis.
This path is as follows:
Rete testis → vas efferentia → epididymis → vasa deferentia → Ejaculatory duct → urethra
As the sperms are travelling, they gradually become mature. They are made capable to perform process of fertilization.
Seminal vesicles (in pairs), Single prostate gland and a pair of Cowper’s glands secrete their secretions. These secretions and the sperms together form semen.
This semen is deposited in the vagina with help of penis.
