The reproductive system ensures the survival of the species. Other systems in the body, such as the endocrine and urinary systems, work continuously to maintain homeostasis for the survival of the individual. An individual may live a long, healthy, and happy life without producing offspring, but if the species is to continue, at least some individuals must produce offspring.

This image of the seminiferous tubules is very instructive and detailed. The tubules' organization and close packing, as well as the fact that they are where sperm are produced, are truly remarkable. The presence of Sertoli cells emphasizes the vital support system for this function, and the various layers of developing sperm cells truly demonstrate the intricacy of the reproductive process.
