Question
which serves as a temporary storage of sperm cells before they are released in the urethra? testes cowper’s gland epididymis prostate gland
The epididymis is a coiled tube attached to the testes that functions as a temporary storage site for sperm cells, allowing them to mature and be stored before being released into the urethra. The testes produce sperm, Cowper’s gland (bulbourethral gland) produces a fluid that lubricates and neutralizes acidity in the urethra, and the prostate gland contributes to seminal fluid, but neither of these store sperm temporarily in the same way the epididymis does.
