Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Epididymis is the location of final stages of maturation of sperm cells. Testes produce spermatozoa and secrete sex hormones. Ductus deferens transports sperm from the epididymis to the ejaculatory duct. Seminal vesicles produce semen, the fluid medium for sperm.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
The male reproductive system consists of the testes (produce sperm), ductal system and seminal vesicles (store and transport sperm), scrotum (holds testes and regulates their temperature), penis (required for sperm deposit in female), and accessory glands (produce male hormones and other secretions).
