Prostate gland Seminal vesicle Cowper's gland


Why sperm to be bathed with fluid fromthe prostate gland and seminal vesicle?

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.


What Is the difference between seminal vesicle prostate gland and Cowper gland?

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


Which glands add secretions to make semen?

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.

What do seminal vesicle ducts empty into?

The seminal vesicle ducts empty into the ejaculatory ducts. These ducts are formed by the merger of the seminal vesicle ducts and the vas deferens. The ejaculatory ducts then pass through the prostate gland and open into the urethra, contributing to the semen during ejaculation.
