Where Does Sperm Production Takes Place

Question

Where does sperm production takes place?
A) seminiferous tubules
B) Leydig cells
C) epididymis
D) vas deferens

Accepted Answer

Sperm production occurs within the seminiferous tubules of the testes. Leydig cells are responsible for producing testosterone, which is necessary for sperm development, but not sperm production itself. The epididymis is where sperm are stored and matured after they have been produced. The vas deferens carries the mature sperm from the epididymis to the urethra during ejaculation.
