one half meter long in which sperms are formed (60 million sperm/day
1. Epididymis (coiled tube about 6 meters long) – is the site of sperm ma
2. Vas deferens & ampulla of vas deferens – site of storage of sperms (up
month).
3. Prostate gland – secretes an alkaline thin, milky fluid. The slight alkalin
secretion helps to neutralize the acidity of other seminal fluids and vag
enhance sperm motility and fertility.

from there into the prostatic urethra.
