Question

Which structure receives spermatozoa directly from the seminiferous tubules?

Options

• Efferent ducts

• Epididymis

• Vas deferens

• Seminal vesicles

Answer 1

Spermatozoa produced in the seminiferous tubules first enter the efferent ducts. These small ducts collect sperm from the seminiferous tubules and transport them to the epididymis for maturation and storage. The efferent ducts represent the initial conduit through which newly produced sperm leave the seminiferous tubule compartment.
