- The testes, often known as testicles or male gonads, are found in the scrotum, a pouch of skin behind the penis.
- A small thread called the spermatic cord connects each testis to the body wall and goes through a depression in the pelvis and into the belly.
- The nerves and blood arteries of the testes, as well as the vas deferens, which delivers sperm from the testes to the urethra during ejaculation, are all housed in the cord.
- The testes are kept at a temperature that is around two degrees Celsius lower than the body's core temperature.
- This is because sperm production and quality are at their peak at this lower temperature.
