I've been up all night writing about one for tomorrow's presentation. Out of all the categories, I got, "The Reproductive System". I have a partner, but he's not doing jack spoon.
Thanks Wiki.
Quote:The human male reproductive system is a series of organs located outside of the body and around the pelvic region of a male that contribute towards the reproductive process.
The male contributes to reproduction by producing spermatozoa. The spermatozoa then fertilize the egg in the female body and the fertilized egg (zygote) gradually develops into a fetus, which is later born as a child.
The penis has a long shaft and enlarged tip called the glans penis. The penis is the copulatory organ of the males. When the male is sexually aroused, the penis becomes erect and ready for intercourse. Erection is achieved because blood sinuses within the erectile tissue of the penis become filled with blood. The arteries of the penis are dilated while the veins are passively compressed so that blood flows into the erectile cartilage under pressure. The male penis is made of two different tissues, soft spongey tissue and cartilage. There is a pelvic bone in the front top of the penis.
