Question

The shared terminal duct of the reproductive and urinary system in the human male is:

• A. Urethra
• B. Ureter
• C. Vas deferens
• D. Vasa efferentia

Answer 1

The correct option is A Urethra

In human males, the urethra is about 8 inches long and opens at the end of the penis.The urethra provides an exit from the urine (excretory system) as well as for the semen (reproductive system) during ejaculation. Urethra is the shared terminal duct of the reproductive and urinary system in the human male.

The urine travels from the kidneys to the bladder in two thin tubes called ureters. Vas deferens is a tube that transports sperms from the epididymis to the urethra in preparation for ejaculation. In contrast, vasa efferentia are convoluted tubules that connect rete testis to the epididymis.

So, the correct answer is option A.
