Solution

The correct option is A Spermatogenesis
In mammals, scrotal sacs (containing testes) act as thermoregulator, maintaining the temperature of the testes $2^{o} C$ lower than that of the body. This temperature is required for the spermatogenesis to occur otherwise, the sperms could be destroyed by high temperature, resulting in sterility.
