Solution

The correct option is D Epididymis
The sperms undergo physiological maturation, acquiring increased motility and fertilizing capacity in epididymis.
Epididymis is a long coiled tube which store sperm until ejaculation. Sperm matures in the body of the epididymis which is a long twisted tube. The tail of epididymis connects to the vas deferens, from which sperm is transported to the ejaculatory duct. Sperm gain motility in the epididymis.
So the correct answer is option C.
