Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Sperm is produced in the testes and then travels through the epididymis, where they mature and are stored. From there, they pass into the ductus deferens, which transports them towards the urethra. Just before reaching the urethra, the ductus deferens merges with the seminal vesicle to form the ejaculatory duct, which then enters the urethra. Therefore, the correct order is epididymis, ductus deferens, ejaculatory duct, and then urethra. Choice C is the only one that has the correct order.
