A
Testes
B
Urethra
C
Epididymis
D
Scrotum
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: -The cauda epididymis can store enough sperm for two to three normal semen samples. This is substantially less sperm than is stored in the cauda of many other species.

Detailed explanation-3: -After spermatids form, they move into the epididymis to mature into sperm, like the one shown in Figure below. The spermatids grow a tail and lose excess cytoplasm from the head.
