Options

• vas deferens

Answer 1

The female equivalent of the glans of the penis is clitoris.

Explanation:

• The clitoris is located posterior to the mons pubis and is homologous to the glans penis in males. It contains erectile tissue and is very sensitive, although smaller and without a urethral passage like the penis.
• Other options such as hymen, vestibule, and vas deferens are different structures in the female reproductive system and do not correspond to the glans of the penis.
