Answer to Question 1

Proper development of the spermatozoa depends on an environment in which the temperature is a few degrees cooler than body temperature, as it is in the scrotum because it is outside the body.

A
Explanation: A) Correct
B) Ferritin is not a protein in the plasma.
C) Bilirubin is not a protein in the plasma.
D) Bicarbonate is an electrolyte, not a plasma protein.
