Statement I: | Secretions of epididymis, vas deferens, seminal vesicle and prostate are essential for maturation and motility of sperms. |
Statement II: | The functions of male sex accessory ducts and glands are maintained by the gonadotropins. |
Assertion (A): | Fertilisation takes place in the ampullary region of the oviduct. |
Reason (R): | Ampulla is the wider part of the oviduct. |
