Solution

The correct option is C Epididymis
  • After spermatogenesis, immature sperms are pushed out of the seminiferous tubules by other sperms and the fluids produced by the Sertoli cells.
  • As sperm enter the epididymis, they complete maturation, stimulated in part by protein secretions from the epididymal cells.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
