Solution

The correct option is A Urethra
The key male reproductive organs include the testes, epididymis, urethra, vas deferens, prostate gland, seminal vesicle, and penis. The ejaculation process begins as the penis fills with blood and becomes erect. With sufficient stimulation, mature sperm travels from the epididymis through the vas deferens, a muscular tube, which propels sperm forward through smooth muscle contractions. From the ampulla, seminal fluid is propelled forward through the ejaculatory ducts toward the urethra, passing first by the prostate gland, where a milky fluid is added to form semen.
So the correct option is 'urethra'.
