Verified step by step guidance
1
Understand the anatomy of the male reproductive system, focusing on the structures involved in the transport of sperm cells.
Identify the starting point of the sperm cells, which is the testes, where they are produced.
Recognize that after production, sperm cells are stored and mature in the epididymis, which is located adjacent to the testes.
Learn that from the epididymis, sperm travel through the vas deferens, a muscular tube that transports them towards the ejaculatory duct.
Finally, understand that the sperm pass through the ejaculatory duct and enter the urethra, which is the final passageway out of the male body during ejaculation.
