Like the ovaries to which they are homologous, testes are components of both the reproductive system (being gonads) and the endocrine system (being endocrine glands). The respective functions of the testes are:

  • producing sperm (spermatozoa)
  • producing male sex hormones of which testosterone is the best-known

Difference between testes and testicles?

Testis is the medical anatomical term. Testis/testicles are the same thing. Testis/testicles are responsible for the production of male hormones and sperm. Testis and testicles are NOT the same thing. "Testis" is the singular form and "testes" is its plural. "Testicles" is the plural of "testicle." I'm not as certain of this, but I've come to believe that a testicle is an abnormally small testis.
