The correct Answer is:
To determine the correct order for the path of sperm from the testes to outside the body, we can break down the process step by step: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Spermatogenesis in the Testes**: - The process begins in the testes, where sperm are produced in the seminiferous tubules through a process called spermatogenesis. 2. **Rete Testis**: - After formation, the sperm move into the rete testis, a network of tubules that collects sperm from the seminiferous tubules. 3. **Epididymis**: - From the rete testis, sperm travel to the epididymis, where they mature and are stored. 4. **Vas Deferens (Ductus Deferens)**: - Upon ejaculation, sperm are transported from the epididymis into the vas deferens (also known as ductus deferens), which is a muscular tube that carries sperm to the ejaculatory duct. 5. **Ejaculatory Duct**: - The vas deferens joins with the seminal vesicle to form the ejaculatory duct, which passes through the prostate gland. 6. **Urethra**: - The ejaculatory duct opens into the urethra, the tube that carries urine and sperm out of the body. 7. **Penis**: - Finally, the sperm exit the body through the penis during ejaculation. ### Correct Order: - Testes → Rete Testis → Epididymis → Vas Deferens → Ejaculatory Duct → Urethra → Penis ### Conclusion: The correct order for the path of sperm from the testes to outside the body is: **Epididymis → Vas Deferens → Ejaculatory Duct → Urethra → Penis** (Option B).
