| Description |
Compare and contrast the efferent ducts and the ductus epididymis. The efferent ducts are lined with simple columnar epithelium composed of tall and short cells which give the lumen a star shaped appearance. The efferent ducts conduct maturing sperm into a single highly coiled tube, the ductus epididymis. The ductus epididymis is lined with a ciliated pseudostratified epithelium.
