Question

After they are formed in the testes, sperm are stored in the ___________ before they leave the body:

a. seminiferous tubules
b. rete testis
c. straight tubules
d. epididymis
e. efferent ductules

Answer 1

The correct answer is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sperm is produced in the seminiferous tubules of the testes, then it travels through the straight tubules and the rete testis and arrives at the epididymis to mature and to be stored.

When ejaculation occurs, sperm leaves the epididymis through the vas deferens and arrives to the ejaculatory duct. Then ejaculatory duct passes through the prostate to merge witch the urethra and finally sperm leaves the body.
