Enzyme Questions

Enzymes are responsible for both sperm and male sex hormone production in the testicles of human males. Some of these enzymes have an optimal termperature of 33°C, which is about 4°C lower than body temperature. If this termperature is increased or lowered, sperm and testosterone production is adversely effected?

 

b) What anatomical feature helps the testicles to maintain a lower temperature?

 

I'm not sure on what this question means by anatomical feature... the testicles are located below the core of the body? Would that be a sufficient answer?

Your answer seems good to me. Though it makes me want to sing 'do your balls hang low'...
