Epididymis

The epididymis (plural, epididymides) is a whittish mass of tightly coiled tubes connected to and cupped against each testis.

It acts as a storage place for sperm before they enter the ductus deferens (plural, ductus deferentia; vas deferences in humans), a tube that carries sperm from the testis to the urethra.
