Labels:text | font | screenshot | number | document | book OCR: SCROTUM T `HE SCROTUM is a wrinkled pouch of skin that contains the testes. It is located behind the penis and hangs loosely away from the body. This is because production of viable sperm takes place only when the testes are 3.5"F (2℃) cooler than body temperature. When the temperature drops, muscles contract to pull the scrotum closer to the body and the warmth that it generates.
