What are the difference between the testes of a frog and a rat in terms of tunica albuginea, interstitial cells, seminiferous tubules, basement membrane, sertoli cells

STRUCTURES

FROG

RAT

TUNICA ALBUGINEA

Thick fibrous sheet of connective tissue.

Composed of collagen fibers and occasional smooth muscle cells.

INTERSTITIAL CELLS

Endocrinal in nature and secrete mainly androsterone and testosterone

Major source of testosterone and also participate in steroid biosynthesis.

SEMINIFEROUS TUBULES

Lined by single layer of cuboidal cells. These cuboidal cells form the germinal epithelium

Germinal epithelial component is absent

SERTOLI CELLS

Involved In providing nutrients to mature spermatozoa

Capable of steroid biosynthesis and secretion of inhibin and androgen binding protein
