True
The text describes the penis as not being a muscle, but instead made of erectile tissue, blood vessels, nerves, and connective tissue. It mentions two corpora cavernosa and one corpus spongiosum, and explains that an erection occurs when blood fills these tissues. It also clarifies that nearby pelvic muscles help but the penis itself does not flex like a muscle.
The evaluated claims about the anatomy and function of the penis are supported by scientific evidence and reputable sources. The claims regarding the structure of the penis consisting of erectile tissues rather than muscle, its components, and the mechanism of erection are consistent with anatomical and physiological knowledge.

True
Anatomy
The penis is not a muscle.
The penis is not composed of muscle, but primarily of erectile tissues, which include smooth muscles that enable blood flow for erection. The presence of the ischiocavernosus and bulbospongiosus muscles, which assist in maintaining an erection, does not classify the penis itself as a muscle. [Source: TeachMeAnatomy].

An erection happens when blood fills the tissues and gets trapped.
The physiological process of erection involves blood filling the erectile tissues and being trapped to maintain the erection, corroborated by various medical sources describing this typical function. [Source: Healthline, StatPearls].

Anatomy
Nearby pelvic muscles help with erection but the penis itself does not flex like a muscle.
While the penis does not flex like a muscle, nearby pelvic muscles do aid in maintaining erections by helping to trap blood within the penis. This aligns with evidence from health and medical sources. [Source: Healthy Male].
