Arrow B is pointing to the spermatic cord, which means that letter A is the right answer to this question. The spermatic cord has gotten its name because of its appearance. It looks a bit like a cord. This can be found in the vas deferens and the different tissues that are near the two testicles of men. The spermatic cord contains a lot of vessels, ducts, and nerves that will make it possible for this part of the body to react to different stimuli.
