Question

Claudia epididymis leads to
A. Vas efference
B. Vas deferens
C. Ejaculatory duct
D. Rete testis

Answer 1

Hint: Claudia epididymis will lead to another duct also called the ductus deferens. It helps in transporting sperm from Claudia epididymis to the ejaculatory ducts.

Complete answer:
The rete testis, the Vasa efferentia, the Claudia epididymis, and the vas deferens are the male sex accessory ducts. The Claudia epididymis is a part of the male reproductive system that will connect the testicle to the vas deferens.

Additional Information: The testis is located within a sack called the scrotum. Testis comprises 250 compartments called testicular lobules. Every single testicular lobule consists of 1 seminiferous tubule to a maximum of 3 seminiferous tubules. An individual seminiferous tubule is made of male germ cells and Sertoli cells. The seminiferous tubules via rete testis will open into vasa efferentia. The vasa efferentia will escape from the testis and leads to the Claudia epididymis. The Claudia epididymis connects the Vas deferens that will go up to the abdomen and rounds up the urinary bladder. This will get a duct from the seminal vesicle, and will, in turn, open up to ureter. The role of these ducts is to store as well as transport the sperm from the testis to urethra and later it will get ejected from the body.

So, the correct answer is ‘Vas deferens’.

Note: Seminal vesicles, prostate, and bulbourethral glands. Their secretions are collectively called the seminal plasma. The epididymis, seminal vesicle, vas deferens, and prostate secretions are crucial for maturation as well as sperm motility. Semen is the sperm plus seminal plasma.
