GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Sperm are produced and released by the male reproductive organs. The testes are where sperm are produced. The testes are linked to the rest of the male reproductive organs by the vas deferens, which extends over the base of the pelvic bone or ilium, and wraps around to the ampulla, seminal vesicle, and prostate.

Detailed explanation-2: -The two testicles (or testes) produce sperm and the male sex hormone testosterone.

Detailed explanation-3: -The testes contain germ cells that differentiate into mature spermatozoa, supporting cells called Sertoli cells, and testosterone-producing cells called Leydig (interstitial) cells. The germ cells migrate to the fetal testes from the embryonic yolk sac.

Detailed explanation-4: -Sertoli cells are a type of sustentacular “nurse” cell found in human testes which contribute to the process of spermatogenesis (the production of sperm) as a structural component of the seminiferous tubules.

Detailed explanation-5: -The primary reproductive organs, or gonads, consist of the ovaries and testes. These organs are responsible for producing the egg and sperm cells gametes), and hormones.
