MV Male Full Anatomy Medical Anatomy 3D Model
Male anatomy primarily consists of external and internal reproductive organs, along with other systems that support sexual function and overall health. Here’s a brief overview:
External Anatomy:
- Penis: The organ used for sexual intercourse and urination. It contains erectile tissue that fills with blood to achieve an erection.
- Scrotum: A pouch of skin that holds the testicles and regulates their temperature for optimal sperm production.
- Testicles (Testes): Two oval organs that produce sperm and hormones, primarily testosterone.
Internal Anatomy:
- Epididymis: A coiled tube where sperm mature and are stored.
- Vas Deferens: A duct that transports sperm from the epididymis to the ejaculatory duct.
- Seminal Vesicles: Glands that produce a fluid that nourishes sperm and forms part of semen.
- Prostate Gland: Produces a fluid that helps protect and energize sperm in semen.
- Bulbourethral Glands (Cowper’s Glands): Produce a pre-ejaculatory fluid that lubricates the urethra.
Other Systems:
- Urethra: The tube that carries urine from the bladder and semen from the reproductive system out of the body.
- Bladder: Stores urine before it is excreted.
Hormonal Regulation:
The male reproductive system is regulated by hormones, primarily testosterone, which influences the development of male characteristics and reproductive functions.
