GENERAL HISTOLOGY

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: -A narrow, tightly-coiled tube that is attached to each of the testicles (the male sex glands that produce sperm). Sperm cells (male reproductive cells) move from the testicles into the epididymis, where they finish maturing and are stored.

Detailed explanation-3: -Sperm cells mature primarily in the head and body of the epididymis and are stored in the tail. The epididymis receives sperm from the tubules in the mediastinum testis, the region in the testis in which all its sperm-producing tubules converge and empty.

Detailed explanation-4: -Sperm are stored in the proximal portion of the ductus deferens, near the epididymis, and peristaltic movements propel the sperm through the tube. The proximal portion of the ductus deferens is a component of the spermatic cord, which contains vascular and neural structures that supply the testes.
