1. The testicular parenchyma can be divided into the tubular compartment and the interstitial compartment. Which compartment consists of seminiferous tubules, Sertoli cells, and developing germ cells (circle one)? interstitial compartment tubular compartment 2. As the male gamete undergoes spermatogenesis which direction does it travel in the seminiferous tubule (circle one)? Towards the lumen From the lumen outward They stay in the same spot 3. The Sertoli cells (also known as nurse or governing cells) are the only somatic cells in the seminiferous epithelium. What is the function of the specialized tight junctions between adjacent Sertoli cells (circle all correct answers)? Thermoregulation Prevent immune cells from reaching gametes Obstruct large molecular weight materials entering the adluminal compartment
