Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Sperm production in the testes takes place in coiled structures called seminiferous tubules. Along the top of each testicle is the epididymis. This is a cordlike structure where the sperm mature and are stored.
Detailed explanation-2: -Once your body has made enough hormones, sperm begin to develop within a system of tiny tubes called seminiferous tubules inside your testicles. Sperm start as simple round cells that must mature and transform to their tadpole-like shape.
Detailed explanation-3: -Once they’re mature, sperm live in “storage” in the testicles-specifically, in the cauda epididymis-for as long as a few weeks. After that, they’re reabsorbed into the body.
