Flashcards

What is the epididymis?

The epididymis is a long, coiled tube located on the posterior surface of each testicle. It is responsible for storing and maturing sperm cells.

What is the rete testis?

The rete testis is a network of channels located within the mediastinum testis, which is a fibrous capsule within the testicle. It connects the seminiferous tubules to the efferent ductules.

What is the tunica albuginea?

The tunica albuginea, also known as the tunica vaginalis, is a dense connective tissue capsule that surrounds the testicle.

What are Sertoli cells?

The Sertoli cells are specialized cells within the seminiferous tubules of the testes that provide support and nourishment to developing sperm cells.

What are the parts of the epididymis?

The epididymis is divided into three parts: the head, body, and tail. The head is closest to the testicle, followed by the body and then the tail.
