GREATER VESTIBULAR GLANDS

The _______________ (paired) passes through the prostate Gland inorder to connect to the urethra. NOTE: Ductus defrens is also paired.

Ejaculatory Duct

The _______________ are sac-like pouches that attach to the vas deferens near the base of the 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.

seminal vesicles

The ______________ is a walnut-sized structure that is located below the urinary bladder in front of the rectum. it contributes additional fluid to the ejaculate. Prostate fluids also help to nourish the sperm. The urethra, which carries the ejaculate to be expelled during orgasm, runs through the center of it.

prostate gland

The \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_, or Cowper’s glands, are pea-sized structures located on the sides of the urethra just below the prostate gland. These glands produce a clear, slippery fluid that empties directly into the urethra. This fluid serves to lubricate the urethra and to neutralize any acidity that may be present due to residual drops of urine in the urethra.
