Paired pouches attached to the posterior portion of the bladder. The seminal ducts join with the ipsilateral ductus deferens to form the ejaculatory duct. image

A pair of small glands on both sides of the prostate which secrete much of the fluid in semen.

In male, glands secreting fluid into seminiferous tubules.

The pouches above the prostate that store semen.

Pouches attached to the urinary bladder.

Two glands located near the prostate that provide a portion of the semen.

The pair of glandular sacs that secrete approximately 60% of the fluid that makes up semen in which sperm are transported.

glandular structures located above and behind the prostate that secrete and store seminal fluid; the seminal vesicles  connect with the ejaculatory ducts; the seminal fluid contains nutrients for the sperm that improves their viability and mobility

A pair of glands located on each side of the bladder that help move sperm to a man's urethra.

Male sex organs that are joined to the vas deferens on each side as they enter the prostate gland to join the urethra; once thought to act as receptacles for storing sperm, they are now known to be more important for contributing constituents of semen.

glands that work along with the prostate to produce the fluids that combine with sperm as it moves through the male reproductive system to form semen that is ejaculated during sexual intercourse.

A pair of pouch-like glands, adjacent to the prostate, that contribute substances to semen.

A pair of pouchlike glands, adjacent to the prostate, that contribute substances to the semen.

paired glands at the base of the urinary bladder that secrete fluid rich in sugar into the vas deferens as a contribution to semen.

glands located at the base of the bladder and connected to the prostate that provide nutrients for semen.

Two sacs which open into the top of the male urethra. The secretions from these vesicles form part of the seminal fluid.

Two oblong glands located behind the bladder that join each vas deferens and empty into the urethra. They contribute more than half of the fluid volume of semen.

The seminal vesicles are two tiny, wing-shaped glands just behind the prostate that make about 80% of the liquid in a man's semen. The seminal vesicles are usually removed along with the prostate in surgery to treat prostate or bladder cancer.

glands that secrete a component of semen; these glands surround the ejaculatory duct and are located adjacent to the prostate

One of two glands lying on either side of the prostate which secrete much of the fluid in semen.

The sac-like pair of tiny glands that lie above the prostate and produce about 70 percent of seminal fluid for manufacture and transport of sperm.

See Cowper's glands.

the two sacs at the base of the bladder in men that produce seminal fluid. They are connected to the prostate gland.

Glands that add fluid to the ejaculate.

Sac-like structures in the male, found near the prostate gland, which produce fluid that is part of the semen ejaculate

Pouch-like paired glands connected to the prostate that produce and store seminal fluid.

pouches located above the prostate that store semen.

Two small sacs next to the prostate that store semen.

Glands that contribute fructose to sperm. The fructose serves as an energy source. The structures that add fructose and hormones to semen. PICTURE

The two glands found below the bladder, producing seminal fluid. close window

The pair of pouch-like glands around the prostate that produce the milky fluid that mixes with the sperm prior to ejaculation

in men, reproductive organs that secrete a thick fluid that makes up part of the semen.

Pouch-like bodies in the testicles that provide the majority of ejaculatory fluid in men.

Glands located on either side of the prostate that secrete substances to nourish sperm

Glands in the male reproductive tract that secrete a milky substance that nurtures and promotes survival of sperm.

Pouches inside the body above the prostate that store semen.

Glands in the male reproductive system which produce much of the semen volume, including fructose (sugar) for nourishing the sperm and a chemical that causes the semen to coagulate on entering the vagina.

Glands that, like the prostate, support male reproduction. Fluid secreted by these glands regulates the consistency of semen.

the sac-like glands that lie behind the bladder and release a fluid that forms part of semen.

Glands which lie very close to the prostate and produce secretions which form part of the ejaculate.

small saclike organs opening into each vas deferens near the upper end of the urethra; they produce part of the fluid that mixes with the sperm to form semen; they produce fructose

Tow small oblong glands behind the bladder, each joins a vas deferens.

Glands that secrete seminal fluid.

Two pouches in the male reproductive system which secrete about 30 percent of the liquid portion of semen.

A pair of glands, near the prostate, that add substances to semen

small glands near the prostate that produce some of the fluid for semen.

the paired glands at the base of the baldder that produce seminal fluid and fructose

The sac-like pouches that attach to the vas deferens near the base of the urinary bladder. The seminal vesicles produce a sugar-rich fluid (fructose) that provides sperm with a source of energy and helps with the sperms' motility (ability to move). The fluid of the seminal vesicles makes up most of the volume of a man's ejaculatory fluid, or ejaculate.

Glands of the male reproductive tract that produce roughly 60 percent of the volume of semen.

The seminal vesicles produce semen, a fluid that activates and protects the sperm after it has left the penis during ejaculation

sac-like structures that secrete a fluid that activates the sperm

glands at the base of the bladder that release fluid into the semen during orgasm.

Pair of pouchlike glands at the base of the bladder that produce much of the semen volume, including fructose (sugar) for nourishing the sperm and a chemical that causes the semen to coagulate on entering the vagina.

Glands that help produce semen.
