If for some reason, the Efferent Duct in the human reproductive system get blocked, the gametes will not be transported from:

Correct answer: A. Rete testis to epididymis

  • A. Rete testis to epididymis
  • B. Epididymis to vas deferens
  • C. Ovary to uterus
  • D. Vagina to uterus

Explanation

Sperm is produced in the seminiferous tubules of the testes and passes into the rete testis. It then travels through the efferent ducts to the epididymis, where it matures and is stored. Blockage of the efferent ducts prevents this transport, leading to infertility.
