Question

If the vas deferens of a man is surgically disconnected:

• A. Sperm in the semen will be without nuclei
• B. Semen will be without sperms
• C. Spermatogenesis will not occur
• D. Sperms in the semen will be non-motile

Answer 1

The correct option is B Semen will be without sperms

The sterilization procedure helps to prevent sperms from meeting with the egg. The method of sterilization varies from male to female. Sterilization in males is termed vasectomy, whereas, in females, it is termed as tubectomy.

Vasectomy constitutes tying, cutting, clipping or sealing of the vas deferens of a male to prevent the release of the sperm. Vasa deferens is a tube that helps to transport sperms, but if it is blocked then, there will be no sperm in the semen.
