sperm are formed in tightly coiled tubes called seminiferous tubules that are found within each
The testicle is divided into parts called lobules. Each lobule contains tiny U-shaped tubes called seminiferous tubules. There are about 800 seminiferous tubules tightly coiled within the testicle. The seminiferous tubules open into a series of uncoiled, interconnected channels called the rete testis.Ducts, or tubes, connect the rete testis to a tightly coiled tube called the epididymis. The epididymis joins to a long, large duct called the vas deferens. Each testicle is held in the scrotum by a spermatic cord.he testicle is divided into parts called lobules.
