The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Vasa Efferentia**: Vasa efferentia are a series of small ducts that connect the rete testis (a network of tubules in the testis) to the epididymis. 2. **Identifying Functions**: The primary functions of the male reproductive system components need to be identified. The epididymis is known for storing and maturing sperm, while the vasa efferentia serve a different purpose. 3. **Analyzing Options**: The options provided are: - Store the sperm - Mature the sperm - Conduct the sperm - None of the above 4. **Eliminating Incorrect Options**: - **Store the sperm**: This function is primarily performed by the epididymis, not the vasa efferentia. - **Mature the sperm**: Again, this is a function of the epididymis, where sperm undergo maturation. - **Conduct the sperm**: This is the primary function of the vasa efferentia, as they transport sperm from the rete testis to the epididymis. 5. **Conclusion**: The correct answer to the function of vasa efferentia is to **conduct the sperm**. ---
