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
They;re both accessory sex glands but the difference between them is that the seminal vesicle produces fructose for the sperm whereas the prostate gland doesn't.
seminal vesicle: provides the sperm with a sugary substance, providing it with energycowpers gland: lubricates spermprostate gland: provides sperm with alkaline fluid to protect it from the acidity of the vagina
Prostate gland Seminal vesicle Cowper's gland
Sperm cells need to be bathed with fluids from the prostate gland and seminal vesicle. The seminal glands supply fluid that carries the sperm along and the seminal vesicle supplies fluid that helps the sperm to survive better in 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.
All portions of millions of spermatazoa (sperm cells) float in and are nourished by semen that comes from the seminal vesicle.

Cats do not have seminal vesicles therefore there is no difference.
Its a combination of the testicles, prostate and seminal vesicle.
The prostate is unpaired.
Seminal vesicle, prostate gland, bulbourethral (or Cowper's) glands
Several glands are involved in producing semen. The testes create the sperm cells. The prostate gland creates most of the liquid in the semen. The cowper's glands also produce some of the liquid. The seminal vesicles hold the mixture until ejaculation.
The prostate, testes, and seminal vesicles
Prostate gland Seminal vesicle Cowper's gland
The seminal vesicle provides nutrients and energy for the sperm as well as providing compounds that make sperm alkaline, which helps the sperm survive the highly acidic environment of the vagina. The prostate makes semen even more alkaline
Sperm cells need to be bathed with fluids from the prostate gland and seminal vesicle. The seminal glands supply fluid that carries the sperm along and the seminal vesicle supplies fluid that helps the sperm to survive better in the vagina.
The male reproductive system includes: bulbourethral gland, epididymis, seminal vesicle and prostate gland.
Sperm pass the prostate and the seminal vesicle, on the way from the testicles to the urethra.
