GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Urethra is a common part for both reproductive and excretory systems. Urethra acts as common passage to both urine and sperms.

Detailed explanation-2: -The urethra serves as the final path of excretion of both urine and semen from the body. Urine is the waste product of filtered blood that leaves the kidney via the collecting system.

Detailed explanation-3: -Overall the function of the male urethra is to allow passage of urine and semen. The urethra connects the distal portions of the urinary system, such as the urinary bladder, to the external environment and allows for urine excretion from the body.

Detailed explanation-4: -The urethra has both a reproductive and a urinary function in males because both urine and semen pass through the urethra. There is not a separate pathway for semen to travel on to exit the body. Therefore, they travel through the same tube (urethra) that urine does to exit the body.
