Melasma Overview. Patches of melasma are darker than other areas of skin because they have more pigment. The cells that produce pigment in the skin are called melanocytes. Ultraviolet radiation, or UV rays, from the sun stimulate melanocytes to produce pigment.
The human testicle .The two muscles that regulate the temperature of the testes are the dartos andcremaster muscles:â¢ Dartos Muscle The dartos muscle is a layer of smooth muscle fibers in the subcutaneous tissue of thescrotum (surrounding the scrotum).
The cremaster muscle's function is to raise and lower the testes in order to regulate scrotal temperature for optimal spermatogenesis and survival of the resultant spermatozoa. It does this by increasing or decreasing the exposed surface area of the surrounding tissue, allowing faster or slower dissipation of body heat.
