  8. ductus deferens or vas deferens

  9. inguinal canal
    these are the pasageways through the abdominal wall in the groin of males through which the ductus deferens and blood vessels pass to the testes.
  10. seminal vesicles
    these are small glands and are located near the junction of the ductus deferens and the urethra. they produce some of the seminal fluid
  11. prostate gland
    this is a small gland which surrounds the junction oof the ductus deferens and the urthra. it produces some of the seminal fluid. to find the prostate gland, dissect between the seminal vesicles.
  12. bulbouretral glands
