Best Answer

The testes, locatum in the scotum below the penis, are external to the body. As a result, they are cooler than the rest of the body, a necessary attribute for proper sperm production. In fact, the scrotum has muscles that allow it to contract and relax, raising and lowering the testes relative to the abdominal cavity, thereby regulating their temperature
