  2. visceral lamina

  3. parietal lamina

  4. processus vaginalis


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The serous covering of the testis is known as tunica vaginalis. It is a pouch of serous membrane originated from the processus vaginalis of the peritoneum.

The ducts conjoining the rete testis with the initial section of the epididymis are

  1. efferent ducts

  2. ejaculatory ducts

  3. prostatic ducts

  4. excretory duct of seminal gland


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

These conjoin the rete testis with the initial section of the epididymis in the male reproductive system.

Which among the following is located in the hilum of the testicle?

  1. Tubuli seminiferi recti

  2. Seminiferous tubules

  3. Rete testis

  4. Epididymis


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

It is the complicated network of soft tubules located in the hilum of the testicle, which carries sperm from the seminiferous tubules to the vasa efferentia.

The longest portion of the human male urethra is

  1. prostatic urethra

  2. membranous urethra

  3. spongy urethra

  4. penile urethra


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

It is the longest portion of the human male urethra and is confined in the corpus spongiosum.

Which among the following is vestigial in human male reproductive system?
