Summary Introduction

To determine:

The effect that would cutting of vas deferens on both sides and tying off the ends, have on male fertility.

Introduction:

The reproductive system of males contain male gametes that are termed as spermatozoa or sperm. Sperms are produced by gonads or testes. Male fertility depends on the sperm that fertilizes the egg of female reproductive system. Sperms move from the seminiferous tubules to the epididymis and become motile. They are stored there before the process of ejaculation. Further, sperms travel to the vas deferens, which is a long, muscular tube, containing sperms from the epididymis toward ejaculatory tract.
