Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The cremaster muscle is responsible for pulling the testes closer to the body when it is cold. This helps to keep them warm and maintain the ideal temperature for sperm production. The pampiniform plexus is a network of veins that surround the testicular artery, and helps to regulate blood flow to the testes, but it does not have a direct role in temperature regulation. The corpus spongiosum and corpus cavernosum are structures that are part of the penis, and the perineum is the area of skin located between the anus and the scrotum, so none of these are directly involved in temperature regulation of the testes.
