Question 9 • Biology

What is the purpose of the vas deferens?

Answer
A
to produce seminal fluids to give sperm motility
B
to store, develop, and transport sperm cells from the testes
C
to release the sperm from the penis
D
to transport the sperm from the epididymis to the urethra

Explanation

The vas deferens is a muscular tube that carries sperm from the epididymis toward the urethra during ejaculation. The epididymis is where sperm mature and are stored, so choice B describes the epididymis rather than the vas deferens. Therefore, the correct choice is to transport sperm from the epididymis to the urethra.
