Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The cremaster muscle is responsible for pulling the testes closer to the body in cold temperatures, in order to keep them warm. The pampiniform plexus is a network of veins that helps regulate the temperature of the testes, but does not cause them to move. The corpus spongiosum and corpus cavernosum are erectile tissues in the penis, and the perineum is the area between the anus and the genitals, none of which are involved in testicular movement.
