Answer:

The correct answer is - slightly lower than the body.

Step-by-step explanation:

Spermatogenesis is the process of the generation of sperm. It is the process that requires a slightly low temperature than normal body temperature to produce sperms in viable conditions.

This is the prime reason for the location of the scrotum which is outside the body which allows to testes maintain lower body temperature lower than the rest of the body. There is a 1-8 degrees C difference in the rest of the body and testes.
