The sperm duct opens into which of the following?
Correct answer: B. Urethra
- A. Ureter
- B. Urethra
- C. Testes
- D. All of these options are correct
Explanation
The sperm duct, also known as the vas deferens, opens into the urethra. The urethra is a tube that carries both urine and semen out of the body. In males, the vas deferens transports sperm from the testes to the urethra, where it can then be ejaculated out of the body during sexual reproduction. The urethra serves as a common pathway for both urine and semen to exit the body but not at the same time. The release of urine and semen is controlled by the muscular sphincters within the urethra.
