Answer:

b. epididymis/vas deferens/ejaculatory duct/urethra

Step-by-step explanation:

The male reproductive organs are those which produce sperm and transport them during coitus.

the correct order for the structures sperm pass through as they travel toward the penis:

  • Epididymis is the structure where sperm matures and stored till ejaculation.
  • Vas Deferens a long tube which conducts sperm from the testes to the ejaculatory duct.
  • Ejaculatory duct is a duct which is formed by the union of the vas deferens with the duct of the seminal vesicle. It releases sperm into the urethra.
  • Urethra is a canal which conducts semen to the outside of the body via the penis.
