Answer to Question 1

The testes develop before birth in the abdominal cavity. The inguinal canal serves as a passageway for the descent of the testes from the abdominal cavity into the scrotum. Then, the inguinal canal closes. If it fails to close after the descent of the testes, a loop of intestine can go through the inguinal canal and cause an inguinal hernia.

Answer to Question 2

Exfoliative
