In the male reproductive tract, sperm cells follow a specific path. Which of the following structures do sperm cells enter after traveling through the epididymis?
Correct answer: D. Vas deferens
- A. Urethra
- B. Seminiferous tubules
- C. Ejaculatory duct
- D. Vas deferens
Explanation
After traveling through the epididymis, sperm cells enter the vas deferens. The vas deferens, also known as the ductus deferens, is a muscular tube that extends from the epididymis through the inguinal canal into the pelvic cavity. It serves as a conduit for the transport of sperm from the epididymis to the ejaculatory duct during ejaculation.
