When a male is stimulated in a sexual manner, a signal travels from the brain to the genital area via nerves through the spinal cord. The signal is responsible for making the pelvic muscles contract rhythmically, which is how sperm is transported from the testes to the vas deferens. Extra fluid is added by the seminal vesicles and the prostate gland to protect the sperm.
To uncover what drives sexual behavior in animals, researchers studied the brain activity of male mice throughout the series of actions involved in sex leading up to ejaculation.
