Solution

The correct option is D epididymis to urethra

The sperms produced inside the seminiferous tubules of the testis are transported via various accessory ducts in the following order.

Seminiferous tubules → rete testis → vasa efferentia → epididymis → vas deferens → urethra.

The vas deferens is an accessory duct that connects epididymis to urethra.

Vasectomy is a surgical method of contraception in males in which the vas deferens is tied and cut. Due to this, the sperms cannot be transported into the females during coitus. The reversibility of this method is very poor.
