1
Q

Name 3 anatomical things that help regulate temperature of sperm

A
  1. Pampiniform venous plexus helps to keep testes cool through cooling blood before it enters the scrotum
  2. Positioning of the scrotum provides a cool environment for sperm
  3. Tunica dartos and cremaster muscles: Draw in and let go when testes are too cold or warm
