The main male sex organs are the penis and the scrotum, which contains the testicles that produce semen and sperm, which, as part of sexual intercourse, fertilize an ovum in the female's body; the fertilized ovum develops into a fetus, which is later born as an infant. The corresponding system in females is the female reproductive system.

The mammalian male reproductive system contains two main divisions, the penis and the testicles, the latter of which are where sperm are produced and usually held in a scrotum. [5] In humans, both of these organs are outside the abdominal cavity , but they can be primarily housed within the abdomen in other animals.
This list of related male and female reproductive organs shows how the male and female reproductive organs and the development of the reproductive system are related, sharing a common developmental path. This makes them biological homologues. These organs differentiate into the respective sex organs in males and females.
Reproductive tract of a male macropod. Most male marsupials, except for macropods [19] and marsupial moles, [20] have a bifurcated penis, separated into two columns, so that the penis has two ends corresponding to the females' two vaginas. [7] [17] [21] [8] The penis is used only during copulation, and is separate from the urinary tract.
Kangaroos may have a reputation for being cute and cuddly animals, but the males of the species can be pretty intimidating. In fact, if you happen to run into one of these muscly males, you wouldn ...
The vas deferens (pl.: vasa deferentia), ductus deferens (pl.: ductūs deferentes), or sperm duct is part of the male reproductive system of many vertebrates. In mammals, spermatozoa are produced in the seminiferous tubules and flow into the epididymal duct. The end of the epididymis is connected to the vas deferens.
