Correct Answer
Explanation
The epididymis is the location where sperm are temporarily kept in the male reproductive system. After production in the seminiferous tubules of the testes, sperm travel to the epididymis where they mature and gain the ability to swim. The epididymis is a coiled tube attached to the top and back of each testicle. It consists of three parts: the head, body, and tail. The tail of the epididymis connects to the vas deferens, which carries sperm from the epididymis to the urethra during ejaculation. The bladder, on the other hand, is not involved in the storage or transportation of sperm.
