Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The ductus deferens (vas deferens) is the organ that carries sperm from the epididymis to the urethra. The epididymis is where sperm mature and are stored. The seminal gland (seminal vesicle) and prostate gland secrete fluids that mix with sperm to form semen, and the ejaculatory duct is the tube where semen exits into the urethra. The corpus cavernosum is one of two columns of erectile tissue in the penis.
