Correct answer: D. Vas deferens

  • A. Urethra

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.
