Question

Along the path of the vas-deferens the secretions of which gland provide nutrition to the sperms? 

Options

• Prostate glands

• Seminal vesicles

• Scrotum

• Urinary bladder

Answer 1

Seminal vesicles

Explanation:

Seminal vesicles are glands that release a fructose-rich fluid that nourishes and fuels sperms. This fluid also contains prostaglandins and proteins, which aid in sperm motility and survival. The vas deferens transports sperm from the testicles to the ejaculatory ducts, where it is combined with secretions from the seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and bulbourethral glands to make semen.
