Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Where are adult sperm stored until they leave the body?
A
Seminal Vesicle
B
Testis
C
Vas Deferens
D
Epidydymus
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -The sperm move into the epididymis, where they complete their development. The sperm then move to the vas deferens (VAS DEF-uh-runz), or sperm duct. The seminal vesicles and prostate gland make a whitish fluid called seminal fluid, which mixes with sperm to form semen when a male is sexually stimulated.

Detailed explanation-3: -The sperm migrate from of the seminiferous tubules to the epididymis. Within the epididymis, the sperm mature while they are stored in this structure.

Detailed explanation-4: -Sperm undergo final maturation during their passage through the epididymis (which can last up to 14 days) where they acquire motility and the ability to fertilize an egg.
