Identify the incorrect statement:
1. The seminiferous tubules of the testis open into the vasa efferentia
through the rete testis.
2. The vasa efferentia leave the testis and open into the epididymis
located along the posterior surface of each testis.
3. The epididymis leads to the vas deferens that ascend to the abdomen
and loop over the urinary bladder.
4. The epididymis receives a duct from the seminal vesicle and opens into
the urethra as the ejaculatory duct.
