Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]

Spermatogenesis (meiosis) is the process by which sperm develop and mature. Which of the following sequences correctly describes the anatomical path of spermatozoa from formation to ejaculation?

A	testes, vas deferens, prostate, urethra
B	testes, urethra, prostate, vas deferens
C	prostate, vas deferens, testes, urethra
D	prostate, urethra, testes, vas deferens

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -So, the correct option is ‘Seminiferous tubules →→ Rete testis →→ Vasa efferentia →→ Epidiymis →→ Vas deferens →→ Ejaculatory duct →→Urethra →→ Vagina of female’.

Detailed explanation-2: -Correct answer: Sperm cells in the male reproductive tract are first created in the seminiferous tubules of the testes. From there they travel through the epididymis, vas deferens, ejaculatory duct, urethra, and penis.

Detailed explanation-3: -Spermatogenesis. The process of producing mature sperm is called spermatogenesis. Sperm are produced in the seminiferous tubules of the testes and become mature in the epididymis. The entire process takes about 9 to 10 weeks.

Detailed explanation-4: -Hence the correct sequence of transport of sperms is: Seminiferous tubules → Rete testis → Vasa efferentia → Epididymis → Vas deferens → Ejaculatory duct → Urethra → Urethral meatus.

Detailed explanation-5: -Seminiferous tubules→ Rete testis→ Vasa efferentia→ Epididymis→ Vas deferens→ Ejaculatory duct→ urethra→ urethral meatus.
