Question

question 85
the tightly coiled structure (structures) inside the testes that produce the sperm cells is (are) the:
a bulbo - urethral glands
b epididymis
c vas deferens
d seminiferous tubules
e interstitial cells

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Bulbo - urethral glands secrete fluid for lubrication, not produce sperm.
• Option B: Epididymis is for sperm maturation and storage, not production.
• Option C: Vas deferens transports sperm, not produce them.
• Option D: Seminiferous tubules are tightly coiled structures inside testes where sperm production (spermatogenesis) occurs.
• Option E: Interstitial cells produce testosterone, not sperm.

Answer:

D. Seminiferous tubules
