Explanation
Sperm Storage in Male Reproductive System
Steps:
- Identify key structures: testes produce sperm, epididymis stores it, vas deferens transports it, accessory glands add fluids.
- Examine diagram labels for these functions.
- Match "may contain sperm" to storage/transport paths, excluding production sites or fluid-only glands.
- Select structure along sperm pathway post-production.
Why D is correct:
- Epididymis stores mature sperm before transport, per reproductive anatomy definitions.
Why the others are wrong:
- A: Seminal vesicle produces seminal fluid, no sperm storage.
- B: Prostate gland secretes fluid for semen, lacks sperm.
- C: Urethra conducts urine/semen but holds sperm only transiently during ejaculation.
Final answer: D
