1. How is the ejaculation process?
Ejaculation is the release of semen from the male genitalia out, this is the result of sexual stimulation such as sex with a partner or masturbation according to physiological needs. When ejaculation takes place, men will feel orgasm and relax.

Head: The sperm head contains the cell nucleus, with only a thin layer of cytoplasm and a surrounding cell membrane. In front of the sperm head is a thick layer called the cephalothorax (containing many different enzymes, which play an important role in the fertilization process). Sperm Tail: Sperm tail has a neck, middle, main and end part. The middle part of the sperm contains mitochondria arranged in a spiral shape, their role is extremely important in sperm movement because this arrangement allows the sperm to move straight forward. Normally, sperm is produced every day, but it takes 64 - 72 days for the sperm to complete a complete reproductive cycle from spermatogenesis to being fully mature and ready to ejaculate.
