Identify the pathway that sperm take from their development through ejaculation, mentioning all of the following structures: ejaculatory ducts, epididymis, glans of penis, prostate gland, shaft of penis, testes, urethra, vas deferens

What will be an ideal response?


Answer: Sperm develop in the testes. While still immature, they are released into the epididymis, where they reach maturation. From the tubules of the epididymis, sperm move into the vas deferens, which lead to the ejaculatory ducts that pass through the prostate gland and empty into the urethra, which runs through the shaft and into the glans of the penis.
