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.
