Sperm then travels through the deferent duct through up the spermatic cord into the pelvic cavity, over the ureter to the prostate behind the bladder. Here, the vas deferens joins with the seminal vesicle to form the ejaculatory duct, which passes through the prostate and empties into the urethra.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Rete testis → Efferent ductules → Epididymis → Vas deferens.
epididymisMature sperm begin their journey by travelling from the epididymis to the vas deferens, which propels sperm forward with smooth muscle contractions. The sperm arrive first at the ampulla just above the prostate gland.
Before fertilization can take place, the sperm must be deposited in the vaginal vault, pass through the tiny opening of the cervix, swim through the uterus, and reach the fallopian tubes.
Formed in testes. Mature in the epididymis. Then passes through the vas deferens, then through the ejaculatory duct into the prostatic urethra, then through the intermediate urethra, then through the spongy urethra and finally to the body exterior.
Hence, the correct pathway of transport of sperms: Rete testis →→ Efferent ductules →→ Epididymis →→ Vas deferens.
The stages of fertilization can be divided into four processes: 1) sperm preparation, 2) sperm-egg recognition and binding, 3) sperm-egg fusion and 4) fusion of sperm and egg pronuclei and activation of the zygote.
The egg travels through the fallopian tube, propelled in part by contractions in the fallopian tube walls. Here in the fallopian tube, the egg may be fertilized by a sperm. If the egg is fertilized, the egg and sperm unite to form a one-celled entity called a zygote.
