### Male Reproductive System Diagram

**Diagram Annotations:**

The diagram illustrates the male reproductive system, featuring key structures:

1. **Testis (Labeled 3)**: The organ where sperm is produced.
2. **Epididymis (Labeled 1)**: A coiled tube where sperm matures and is stored.
3. **Vas Deferens (Labeled 2)**: A duct transporting mature sperm to the urethra.
4. **Seminal Vesicle**: Produces seminal fluid to help nourish and transport sperm.
5. **Prostate Gland**: Adds more fluid to the semen.
6. **Bulbourethral Gland**: Secretes a pre-ejaculate fluid.
7. **Penis (Labeled 4)**: The organ for copulation.
8. **Urethra (Labeled 5)**: The duct through which urine and semen are expelled.
9. **Bladder (Labeled 10)**: Stores urine.
10. **Rectum (Labeled 11)**: Part of the digestive system.

**Questions:**

6. **Describe the pathway (ducts) that a sperm cell would travel from its production to ejaculation. What are the three accessory glands of the male reproductive system?**

7. **What is the difference between Leydig cells and Sertoli cells in the testes?**

8. **List three differences between spermatogenesis and oogenesis.** 
   - Note: Do not include that sperm are produced in testes and eggs in ovaries.

9. **What is the difference between menstrual and estrous cycles?**

10. **Menopause does not occur in most species. What is an evolutionary hypothesis regarding why menopause occurs in humans?**
