Trace the flow of filtrate/urine starting with the production of filtrate at the glomerulus and ending outside the body. Be sure to name ALL the structures involved (0.25 pt/blank) After passing through the filtration membrane, the filtrate is collected in the [a1]. From here, it gets funneled to  –> [a2] –> [a3] –> [a4] –> [a5] –> [a6] –> [a7] –> [a8] –> [a9] –> [a10] –> [a11] –> [a12] –> [a13] –> [a14] –> urine ends up outside of the body

In this question you will trace the pathway of sperm cells, starting in the SPECIFIC structures where they are produced and ending outside the body (0.25 pt/blank)   Please name the organ AND the specific part of the organ in which sperm are produced: [a1]. After they are produced, sperm pass from the structure you just named through the following structures of the male reproductive system: [a2] –> [a3] –> [a4] –>[a5] (the 4th structure is where sperm gain the ability to swim) –> [a6] –> [a7] –> [a8] –> [a9] –> [a10] –> [a11] –> sperm end up outside of the body
