| Cowper's Glands | Bulbourethal Glands; located on either side of the urethra just below the prostate gland and their ducts open into the urethra |
| Epididymis | Tube at the upper part of each testis where sperm is temporarily stored |
| Gamete | Sex cell |
| Penis | Male sex organ; composed of erectile tissue |
| Glans Penis | Sensitive region at the tip of the penis |
| Prepuce | Foreskin, covers and protects the glans penis |

| Prostate Gland | Secretes a thick fluid (part of the semen) that aids the motility of the sperm |
| Scrotum | External sac that encloses and supports the testes |
| Scrotum | Suspended from the pubic arch behind the penis and lies between the thighs |
| Semen | Ejaculatory fluid that contains sperm plus the secretions of the seminal vesicles, prostate gland and Cowper's glands |
| Seminal Vesicles | Glands located at the base of the urinary bladder, opening into the vas deferens as it joins the urethra |
| Seminal Vesicles | Secretes a thick, yellow substance that nourishes the sperm cells and forms much of the volume of ejaculated semen |
| Ejaculatory Duct | In the seminal vesicles passes through the prostate gland and enters the urethra |
| Spermatozoa | Sperm |
| Sperm | Male gametes |
| Sperm | Manufactured by the seminiferous tubules with the testes |
| Testes | Plural of testis also known as testicles |
| Testicles | Two small egg-shaped glands that produce sperm and testosterone |
| Testosterone | Male sex hormone |
| Testes | Male gonad where the gametes are produced |
| Urethra | In the male, performs both a reproductive and urinary function |
| Urethra | Passes through the penis to the outside of the body |
| Vas Deferens | Carries the sperm up into the pelvic region, around the urinary bladder, and down toward the urethra |
| Vasectomy | Male sterilization procedure in which a portion of the vas deferens is surgically removed and the free ends are tied or sealed |
| Circumcision | Surgical removal of the foreskin of the penis |
| Orchidectomy | Surgical removal of one or both testes |
| Prostatectomy | Surgical removal of all or part of the prostate gland |
| TURP | Transurethral resection (surgical removal) of the prostate |
| Ligated | In a vasectomy the free ends of the vas deferens are tied with sutures |
| Fulgurated | In a vasectomy the vas deferens is sealed by means of a high-frequency electric current |
| Occluded | In a vasectomy, the free ends of the vas deferens are blocked with metal clips |
| Bulbourethal Glands | Cowper's glands |
