The male reproductive system consists of accessory glands and they include seminal vesicles, prostate gland and cowper’s gland. These glands secrete fluids which enrich the semen.
Seminal vesicle secretes a fluid that serves as an energy source for sperm.
Prostate gland secretes a fluid that nourishes, protects and enhances the motility of the sperm.
Cowper’s gland lubricates the urethra for ejaculation. It also protects the sperm from residual acidic urine in the urethra.
