What male reproductive structure releases sperm into the vas deferens?
lisov135 [29]

The answer is epididymis.

<span>Testicles contain seminiferous tubules, in which sperm is produced, and an epididymis, in which sperm matures. Mature sperm passes through the epididymis to the vas deferens. There, it combines with a liquid secretion from the seminal vesicles and continues through the prostate gland to the urethra. Sperm containing fluid is called semen and it is ejected through the urethra.</span>
