Ok, I've got a GT question here:
list 6 structures that develop from male gonads.
Male: testes, seminiferous tubules, tubuli recti, rete testes, Leydig cells, Sertoli cells.

Could someone please explain why ejaculatory duct, epididymis, and seminal vesicles are not included on this list?

Thanks so much in advance!

The genital duct (incl ejaculatory duct, epididymis, and seminal vesicles) from the efferent ductules up to where the vas deferens meets the urethra, is formed from the mesonephric duct. The seminiferous tubules, tubuli recti, rete testes, tunica albuginea, Leydig cells, and Sertoli cells all come from the primary sex cords.
