Answer:by being produced in the testes outside the body

Explanation: spermatogenesis is the production of male gamates, the sperm. this process occurs in the seminiferous tubules in the testes. epithelial cells produces the primary spermatocyte which divides to give a secondary spermatocyte.

The secondary spermatocyte divides to form spermatids, which differentiates to form the spermatozoons.

Testis is housed in the scrotal sac.

Sperm production is sensitive to temperature. Too high temperature can cause formation of abnormal cells. As a result the scrotal sac is located outside the body
