Detailed explanation-1: -The scrotum hangs outside the body because it needs to maintain a slightly lower temperature than the rest of the body. This lower temperature helps to maintain sperm production. Scrotal tissues help protect the structures inside the testicles, where sperm and important hormones are produced.
Detailed explanation-2: -The scrotum is responsible for protecting the testes. It helps with the thermoregulation of the testicles. It keeps the temperature of the testis several degrees below the average body temperature, which is an essential factor for sperm production.
Detailed explanation-3: -Since it’s vitally important to keep sperm from mutating or deforming if you want to have normal offspring, then it would make sense to produce them at lower temperature.
