The correct option is D

Rete testis.


The correct option is D

Explanation of Correct option:

  1. Testicular lobules are internal lobes present in testis which is having seminiferous tubules.
  2. The seminiferous tubules open into rete testis.
  3. And rete testis opens into vasa efferentia.
  4. So, we can say that rete testis is closest to testicular lobules.

Explanation of Incorrect option:

Option A:

  1. The epididymis is the male sex accessory duct.
  2. The main function of the epididymis is to store the sperms for maturation and transport it to vas deferens.
  3. As came after vas difference its position is far from testicular lobules.

Option B:

As vasa efferentia comes after rete testis and thus, it is not closer to testicular lobules.

Option C:

Vasa difference comes after epididymis, so it is also not closer to tentacular lobes.

Final answer: Rete testis is situated closer to the testicular lobules.
