Male Reproductive System-
- The male reproductive system is composed of a pair of testes, the male sex accessory ducts and the accessory glands and external genitalia.
- Each testis has about 250 compartments called testicular lobules, and each lobule contains one to three highly coiled seminiferous tubules.
