They become functionally motile, although they are still not capable of fertilization. Final capacitation occurs in the female reproductive tract. Ductus deferens Function: Thin tube, about 45 cm long, that passes from the epididymis to the ejaculatory ducts and transports sperm towards the urethra. Spermatic Cord Function: Suspends the testis from the abdomen, and allows the passage of the ductus deferens, testicular artery, veins, nerves, and lymphatics. Urethra Function: An outlet for the reproductive and urinary systems, allowing passage of semen and urine. Seminal Vesicle Function: Produce yellowish fluid that functions to protect the sperm, enhance its motility, and coagulate the semen post ejaculation. Has fructose, prostaglandins and clotting proteins. Prostate Gland Function: Produces thin, milk prostatic fluid. It aids sperm motility, aids viability of sperm, and protects sperm against acidic vaginal secretions. Bulbourethral Gland Function: Produce a clear fluid that functions to wash out and lubricate the male urethra. Supporting parts of the Epididymis Efferent ductules, Head, Body, and Tail. Supporting parts of the Spermatic Cord Internal spermatic fascia, cremasteric fascia, and external spermatic fascia Supporting parts of the Urethra Prepostatic part, prostatic part, membranous part, and spongy part
