Ejaculatory duct
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-003616
A paired tubular structure in the male reproductive system, formed by the convergence of the vas deferens and the seminal vesicle duct. These ducts pass through the prostate gland and open into the urethra. Their primary function is to transport sperm and seminal fluid into the urethra during ejaculation.
