Which duct courses through the prostate just lateral to the verumontanum and receives secretions from the vas deferens and the duct from the seminal vesicle?

Which duct courses through the prostate just lateral to the verumontanum and receives secretions from the vas deferens and the duct from the seminal vesicle?

• A. Ejaculation
• B. Ejaculatory duct
• C. Embryo fragmentation
• D. Embryo transfer (ET)

Answer: (B)

This question tests understanding of the duct system that carries seminal secretions into the urethra. The structure formed by the joining of the vas deferens with the duct from the seminal vesicle passes through the prostate just lateral to the verumontanum and opens into the prostatic urethra. This is the ejaculatory duct, whose main role is to convey sperm and seminal fluid during ejaculation. The other terms refer to processes or unrelated concepts (ejaculation is the expulsion of semen, not a duct; embryo-related terms are not part of the male reproductive duct anatomy).
