Estudio comparativo morfofisiologico del aparato reproductor masculino de los animales domésticos

Abstract

The evolution and adaptation of animal species have led to differences in the morphology and location of the reproductive organs, as well as the absence of certain attached glands, without losing the functioning of the system, knowing that one of the objectives of this system is the production of sperm, which are the important male gametes in reproduction, as well as the excretion of urine and seminal fluid through the urethra, also thanks to the accessory glands that are responsible for the secretion of hormones such as testosterone. which is of great importance in the sexual characterization that modifies the masculine traits that differentiate it from the females. The reproductive apparatus of the male is formed by the external and internal sexual organs, made up of testes or male gonads, internally of the same tubular structures that communicate with each other to form the network of testis, efferent, epididymal and deferent ducts, finally accessory glands responsible for producing secretions that will form the seminal plasma, among them we have the prostate, Cowper or bulbourethral glands, seminal vesicles, urethral glands and the penis as a copulatory organ. In addition to the importance of a good seminal evaluation that assesses the macroscopic characteristics such as tone, color, ejaculate volume, and tests not visible to the human eye, for which a microscopic is chosen for said evaluation, which are based on concentration, motility and sperm morphology.
