The seminal vesicles and prostate gland produce a whitish fluid called seminal fluid
prostate gland
The Prostate Gland secretes an alkaline fluid that helps the sperm live longer in the relatively acidic environment in the vagina. This helps neutralize the environment and allow the sperm to function and maximum capacity.
The prostate produces the seminal fluid in which sperm is transported. Prostate cancer begins with changes in size & shape.
The seminal vesicle contains a sugary substance that gives the sperm energy and the Prostate gland provides alkaline fluid which helps protect the sperm from the acidity of the vagina
The prostate gland secretes about 30% of the fluid, which mixes with the fluid from the seminal vesicle and the spermatozoa. The spermatic fluid or semen is formed by the secretions of the Testes, Seminal vescicles, Prostate gland and Bulbourethral gland. The sperms are secreted by the testes which pass through the vas deferns to seminal vescicles. The seminal vescicles contibute to about 70% of semen. The prostate gland and bulbourethral gland(Cowper's gland) further contibute to form semen.
Prostate gland
the seminal vesicles
The glands that produce a fluid component of seminal fluid are called seminal vesicles. They also lubricate and nourish the sperm.
Seminal fluid and sperm
Most of the seminal fluid is produced by the seminal vesicles, as well as by the prostate gland and the bulbourethral gland.
