To fertilize an egg, sperm must be moved from the seminiferoustubules in the testes, through the epididymis, and—later during ejaculation—along the length of the penis and out into the female reproductive tract. Duct that connects the ampulla of the ductus deferens with the duct of the seminal vesicle at the prostatic urethra.
