Testes Smallest cell in male body.Produces sperm cells and a secrete testosterone.Performs these functions by using ATP.Some diseases that the testes can get are:Testicular cancer.Neoplasm.Orchitis.If the HBC does not keep me, we will have no more children in the future. Which mean the human race will come to an end.

Ovaries The female gonads in which ova (egg) is produced and a
secrete progesterone. Performs these actions by producing female gametes,
called ova. Works with r0eproductive system.Some diseases that the ovaries can get are: Ovarian cancer. Luteoma. Hypogonadism.If the HBC does not keep me, there will be no more children in
the future. Which means the human race will come to an end.
