Identify the correct sequential pathway for the transport of sperms from the testes to the outside in a male frog.
Options
- ATestes Vasa efferentia Kidney Bidder's canal Urinogenital duct Cloaca
- BTestes Vasa efferentia Bidder's canal Kidney Urinogenital duct Cloaca
- CTestes Vasa efferentia Kidney Urinogenital duct Bidder's canal Cloaca
- DTestes Bidder's canal Vasa efferentia Kidney Urinogenital duct Cloaca
Correct answer
A. Testes Vasa efferentia Kidney Bidder's canal Urinogenital duct Cloaca
Step-by-step solution
In male frogs, sperms are produced in the testes. From the testes, 10 to 12 vasa efferentia arise and enter the kidneys on their respective sides. Inside the kidneys, they open into the Bidder's canal. The Bidder's canal finally communicates with the urinogenital duct that emerges from the kidneys and opens into the cloaca. The cloaca is a small, median chamber that is used to pass faecal matter, urine, and sperms to the exterior. Thus, the correct sequential pathway is: Testes Vasa efferentia Kidney Bidder's canal
