Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 3 : Testis

The correct answer is Testis.

• The male reproductive organ that produces sperms is the testis.
• The testis is the primary sex organ in males.
• Each testis is oval in shape, with a length of about 4 to 5 cm and a width of about 2 to 3 cm.
• The testis is covered by a dense covering.
• Each testis has about 250 compartments called testicular lobules.
• Sperms in males are produced in the epididymis.
• The sperm duct carries the sperm from the epididymis

 

• Male gametes are called sperm.
• Sperm is the smallest cell in the human body.
• Sperms are small unicellular structures with a head, middle piece, and tail.
• Sperm production occurs in the testicles.
• Gametes are reproductive cells(sex cells) that unite during sexual reproduction to form a new cell called a zygote.
• The ovary is an organ found in the female reproductive system that produces an ovum.
