Verified step by step guidance
1
Understand the function of each structure listed in the male reproductive system.
The vas deferens is a muscular tube that transports sperm from the epididymis to the ejaculatory ducts.
The urethra is a tube that carries urine from the bladder and also serves as a passage for semen during ejaculation.
The epididymis is a coiled tube where sperm mature and are stored before being transported through the vas deferens.
The seminal vesicle is not a tube; it is a gland that produces seminal fluid, which mixes with sperm to form semen. Therefore, it does not transport spermatozoa.
