Which accessory gland makes the largest contribution to the seminal fluid?

The seminal vesicles make the largest contribution to seminal fluid. They produce about 60-70% of the volume of semen, which provides nutrients for sperm and helps with their motility.


What accessory glands contribute to the seminal plasma for the man?

The accessory glands that contribute to seminal plasma in men include the seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and bulbourethral glands. These glands secrete fluids that make up the majority of semen volume and provide nutrients and enzymes for sperm survival and function.


What is the special liquids that is add it to the sperm cells to make semen?

The special liquids is seminal fluids.


Parts and functions of male cow reproductive system?

The male cow reproductive system includes the testes, which produce sperm cells, and the epididymis, where sperm cells mature and are stored. The sperm travels through the vas deferens to the accessory glands, which produce seminal fluid. During mating, sperm and seminal fluid are released through the urethra in the penis to fertilize the female cow's egg.


What characteristics make the cutaneous membrane different from the serous and mucous membranes?

The cutaneous membrane is the skin covering the body, providing protection from external factors. Serous membranes line body cavities and secrete fluid to reduce friction between organs, while mucous membranes line cavities exposed to the external environment and secrete mucus for protection and lubrication. Cutaneous membranes are keratinized and waterproof, serous and mucous membranes are not.

What male reproductive organ produces an alkaline secretion which helps sperm to live longer?

The accessory sex glands (such as seminal vesicles, prostate, and Cowper's glands) contribute fluid to semen. The seminal vesicles contribute to about 60-70% of the seminal fluid as they secrete their alkaline, white-ish, yellow, viscous material (which contains fructose, prostaglandins, and ascorbic acid). So, the seminal vesicles are the main contributor to the alkaline pH of semen. The prostate gland, however, also secretes materials (such as citric acid, fibrinolysin, prostatic acid phosphatase, and serine protease) which will make up about 25% of seminal fluid. Thus, the prostate gland also contributes to the alkaline pH of semen, but the seminal vesicles are the major players.


Do the seminal vesicles secrete fibrinogen?

The seminal vesicles are convoluted pouch-like structures lying posterior to the base of the urinary bladder, in front of the rectum. They secrete an alkaline viscous fluid containing fructose, prostaglandins and fibrinogen that make up about 60% of the fluid volume of semen. Its alkaline pH helps to neutralize the acidic vaginal pH, and the fructose is used by the sperm to produce ATP. The prostaglandins enhance sperm motility, and fibrinogen, when activated, coagulates the semen to keep all the sperm cells from dispersing immediately after ejaculation.


What is added with sperm to produce semen?

Seminal fluid is added to the sperm to make semen.

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.


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.

Can a gay man make semen?
