Question

what structure contains the vas deferens, and the testicular artery, vein, and nerve?
a spermatic cord
b inguinal canal
c epididymis
d urethra

Explanation:

• The spermatic cord is a bundle of structures that includes the vas deferens, testicular artery, testicular vein (pampiniform plexus), and testicular nerve. It extends from the deep inguinal ring to the testicle.
• The inguinal canal is a passage in the anterior abdominal wall through which the spermatic cord (in males) passes, but it is not the structure that contains the components mentioned.
• The epididymis is a coiled tube on the posterior side of the testicle where sperm mature and are stored.
• The urethra is the tube that carries urine from the bladder and, in males, also carries semen during ejaculation.

Answer:

A. Spermatic cord
