Earthworms are hermaphrodites. They have 2 pair of testicles that have 2 pairs of testicle sacs. There are 2 or 4 pairs of seminal vesicles that produces, store, and release the sperm through the male pores. Ovipores and ovaries are in segment 13 that release eggs through the female pores on segment 14.

What is the function of an earthworm's seminal vesicals?
Seminal vesicles in earthworms store and release sperm during copulation. They play a crucial role in the reproductive process by providing a reservoir for sperm to be transferred to the female during mating.
What is the differences between the cat and the human seminal vesicle?
Cats do not have seminal vesicles therefore there is no difference.
What do the seminal vesicles produce?
The seminal vesicles produce a significant portion of the fluid that makes up semen. This fluid provides nourishment and protection for sperm as they travel through the reproductive tract. It also helps to enhance sperm motility and fertility.
What do a frog's seminal vesicles do?
A frog's seminal vesicles produce and store seminal fluid, which is a component of sperm. During mating, this fluid mixes with sperm to create a mucus-like substance that helps sperm swim and survive in the female reproductive tract.
How does sperm from one earthworm enter another earthworm for cross-fertilization?
Two worms come together along their ventral sides and become temporarily joined by the secretion of a "slime tube". Sperm is discharged from the seminal vesicles of both Worms's long seminal grooves on the ventral body surfaces, and enter the seminal receptacles of the other worms.
What is the function of the seminal vesicles in birds?
The main function of seminal vesicle is to manufacture the fluid that makes up around 70% of semen.
What does the seminal vesicles do in a earth worm?

What organ is near the seminal vesicles?

The seminal vesicles are in what organ system?
The seminal vesicles are accessory organs within the intact male reproductive tract.
Where is sperm stored until it is used by the worm?

What is the name of the vesicles that contribute nutrients to semen?

What provides fructose for sperm?
The seminal vesicles, which are accessory glands of the male reproductive system, produces fructose. This sugar is essential for the survival of sperm cells.
