The sequence of structures through which sperm will travel after leaving the seminiferous tubules is as follows:

  1. Epididymis
  2. Ductus deferens
  3. Ejaculatory duct
  4. Urethra

Explanation:

  1. Epididymis: After being produced in the seminiferous tubules of the testes, sperm first travel to the epididymis, where they mature and are stored.
  2. Ductus deferens: From the epididymis, sperm move into the ductus deferens (also known as the vas deferens), which transports them from the scrotum into the pelvic cavity.
  3. Ejaculatory duct: The ductus deferens then joins with the seminal vesicle to form the ejaculatory duct, which passes through the prostate gland.
  4. Urethra: Finally, sperm travel through the urethra, which is the tube that carries urine and semen out of the body through the penis.

In summary, the correct order is: epididymis, ductus deferens, ejaculatory duct, urethra.
