Explanation:
Hypospadias is a condition where the urethral opening is on the underside (ventral) of the penis rather than at the tip. It can be located along the ventral surface—from the glans to the penile shaft, and even in the scrotum or perineum. The normal opening sits at the distal glans, so a dorsal/top (epispadias-like) opening and a normal opening do not fit hypospadias.
