What are the functions of seminal vesicals and prostate glands |
| Answer» The seminal gland, more commonly referred to as the seminal vesicle, holds the liquid that mixes with sperm to form semen.Semen combines fluid elements from the epididymis, seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and vas deferens. Each body part plays a key role in semen production. The fluids help the sperm swim towards the egg and keep the sperm nourished during the transit process.This gland is located behind the bladder, above the prostate gland, and in front of the rectum.The prostate gland is a male reproductive organ whose main function is to secrete prostate fluid, one of the components of semen. The muscles of the prostate gland also help propel this seminal fluid into the urethra\xa0during ejaculation\xa0.The prostate is a muscular gland that weighs about three-fourths of an ounce (20 grams) about the size of a small apricot. It surrounds the urethra just beneath\xa0the bladder\xa0. | |
