Which structures are responsible for producing semen?
Semen consists of 2 components: the sperm component and a fluid component. Sperm is produced by the testicles. The fluid component is secreted by the prostate gland, bulbourethral (or Cowper's) glands, and seminal vesicles. The fluid component provides nutrition for the sperm as well as neutralizes the acidic environement of the urethra of the penis and the vagina of the female.
What is a mixture of sperm and fluids from three glands?
Most of the seminal fluid is produced by the seminal vesicles, as well as by the prostate gland and the bulbourethral gland.
The vas deferens the seminal vesicle the bulburethral gland or the prostate gland which one is unpaired?
The prostate gland is unpaired, as it is a single gland located below the bladder in males. The vas deferens, seminal vesicles, and bulbourethral glands are paired structures in the male reproductive system.
Name the three organs that produce seminal fluid?
1. seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and bulbourethral glands
What are Secretions of glands combined with sperm?
Semen is the fluid that contains sperm cells, (sperm cells don't secrete fluid). During ejaculation sperm passes through the ejaculatory ducts and mixes with fluids from the seminal vesicles, the prostate, and the bulbourethral glands to form the semen.
What are the Two glands on either side of the bladder that secrete seminal fluid called?
Seminal fluid is comprised of secretions produced by the prostate gland, the bulbourethral glands, and the seminal vesicles. I believe you are asking about the pair of pea-sized bulbourethral glands, also known as Cowper's glands, that lie just beneath the prostate.
Which structures contribute to secretions to semen?
The prostate gland, seminal vesicles, and bulbourethral glands contribute to the secretions that make up semen. These secretions contain nutrients, enzymes, and fluids that support sperm viability and motility.
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.

The fluid component provides nutrition for the sperm as well as neutralizes the acidic environement of the urethra of the penis and the vagina of the female.
What does the secretions from the prostate gland do?
The secretions from the prostate gland ACTIVATE SPERM and NEUTRALIZE URINE.
What two glands that are near the penis?
The two glands near the penis are the bulbourethral glands (Cowper's glands) and the prostate gland. The bulbourethral glands secrete a lubricating fluid that helps with ejaculation, while the prostate gland produces fluid that forms part of semen.
What is a mixture of sperm and fluids from three glands?
Most of the seminal fluid is produced by the seminal vesicles, as well as by the prostate gland and the bulbourethral gland.

How semen formed?
Semen is sperm mixed with other secretions of the male reproductive system. Sperm is formed in the seminiferous tubules of the male testis. As Sperm leaves the body it passes through the prostate gland. The sperm is mixed with a milky white substance that is used to neutralize the acidity of the vagina allowing protection for the sperm. Then this mixture passes through the seminal vesicles where it is then mixed with fructose to provide energy for the sperm. Right before the sperm mixture is ejaculated out of the male penis, the bulbourethral glands send out a "pre-ejaculation" that neutralizes traces of acidic urine in the male urethra. All of that mixed together is known as semen.
Composition of semen and name all structures contributing to its formation?
sperm and t he alkaline secretions of the prostate, seminal vesicles and the bulbourtheral glands
Name the three organs that produce seminal fluid?
1. seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and bulbourethral glands
Secretions from the prostate glands are deposited?
urethra
