Question

6.which best describes the path of sperm from the testes to the exterior of the body?
a.tests, epididymis, vas deferens, ejaculatory ducts, prostatic urethra, membranous urethra, spongy urethra
b.tests, ejaculatory ducts, epididymis, vas deferens, prostatic urethra, membranous urethra, spongy urethra
c.tests, epididymis, ejaculatory ducts, spongy urethra, prostatic urethra, membranous urethra
d.tests, epididymis, vas deferens, ejaculatory ducts, membranous urethra, prostatic urethra, spongy urethra

Explanation:

Sperm production occurs in the testes. After production, sperm move to the epididymis for maturation. Then, they travel through the vas deferens. Next, they pass through the ejaculatory ducts. After that, sperm enter the prostatic urethra, then the membranous urethra, and finally the spongy urethra to exit the body. Option a follows this correct sequence. Option b has an incorrect order (ejaculatory ducts before epididymis). Option c has an incorrect order (spongy urethra before prostatic and membranous urethras). Option d has an incorrect order (membranous urethra before prostatic urethra).

Answer:

A. Testes, epididymis, vas deferens, ejaculatory ducts, prostatic urethra, membranous urethra, spongy urethra
