The testis is the primary male reproductive organ responsible for the production of sperm and testosterone. It consists of several structural components involved in sperm formation.
1. The testis is enclosed by a fibrous capsule called the tunica albuginea.
2. It is divided into several compartments called testicular lobules.
3. Each lobule contains seminiferous tubules, where spermatogenesis occurs.
4. The tubules are lined with two main cell types:
-Sertoli Cells: Support and nourish developing sperm.
-Germ Cells: Undergo meiosis to form spermatozoa.
The Leydig cells, found in the interstitial spaces, produce testosterone.
Functions of Testis:
1. Spermatogenesis: Formation of sperm in the seminiferous tubules.
2. Hormone Secretion: Leydig cells produce testosterone, essential for male secondary sexual characteristics.

Read the following passage and answer the questions given below:
Considering the latitudinal distribution of animal husbandry in the world, it is located between 30°N to 60°N and 30°S to 55°S latitudes.
Climate is one of the most influencing factors in the development of animal husbandry. It is more developed in the Northern Hemisphere. Presence of grasslands in Australia and North and South America has led to the distribution of this occupation. But, this occupation is influenced by advanced technology, market, and availability of large estates.
It has developed on a commercial basis in North America, South America, and Australia. The animal husbandry in North and South America is carried out with the help of advanced technology on a commercial scale.
Dense forests, inhospitable climate, low-quality fodder in the equatorial region has discouraged the development of animal husbandry in these regions.
