Explanation :
The tissue covering the glans penis is called the prepuce, also known as the foreskin. The scrotum is the pouch of skin that contains the testes. The baculum is a bone found in the penis of many mammals, but not humans. The epididymis is a coiled tube located behind the testes, where sperm mature and are stored.
