Solution

The correct option is D Seminiferous tubules
The process of sperm production takes place in the seminiferous tubules. Each seminiferous tubule is lined on its inside by two types of cells called male germ cells (spermatogonia) and Sertoli cells. The male germ cells undergo meiotic divisions finally leading to sperm formation, while Sertoli cells provide nutrition to the
germ cells.
