Question

14.
Assertion (A): Testes are located outside the abdominal cavity in the
scrotum.
Reason (R): Because sperm formation requires lower temperature than
the normal body temperature.


please give correct answers ​

Answer 1

Answer:

both are correct and reson is the correct explanation of assertion

Answer 2

Both Assertion and Reason are True and R is the correct explanation of A.

• Men have their testes located outside the abdominal cavity in the scrotum.
• This is because sperm formation requires a lower temperature than the normal human body temperature, which is maintained by locating them outside the body in the scrotum.
• In addition, the scrotal sac also helps in regulating the temperature of the testes to ensure the production of healthy sperm.
• Keeping the testes and sperm formation outside of the warm abdominal environment ensures that the necessary lower temperature is maintained for adequate and healthy sperm production.
• Testes are responsible for the production of male reproductive cells or spermatozoa which require a lower temperature for their formation which can be met in the scrotum as compared to the abdominal cavity.
• Also, the looser skin of the scrotum provides more area for environmental cooling and allows the testis to move and adjust to the lower surrounding temperatures.

Hence, The assertion (A) that testes are located outside the abdominal cavity in the scrotum is supported by the given reason (R) because the temperature in the scrotum is lower than the normal body temperature.
