Testis
250 pyramidal compartments called |
testicular lobules.

testicular lobules.
how many pyramidal compartments = |
250
septa are incomplete and intercommunications frequently exist between the lobules. |

Each lobule is occupied by 1-4 = |
seminiferous tubules
enmeshed in loose connective tissue rich in blood vessels lymphatic vessels, interstitial (Leydig) cells. |
