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. The release process starts when the penis fills with blood and becomes erect.

Detailed explanation-2: -Vas deferens. This is a tube in which the sperm is stored and it carries the sperm out of the scrotal sac. The vas deferens is between the epididymis and the urethra and connects these together.

Detailed explanation-3: -The epididymis is the male sex accessory duct. The main function of the epididymis is to store the sperms for maturation and transport it to vas deferens. It is a coiled tube attached to both the testes through vasa efferentia.
