58
Q

Prostate Gland:Function

A

is to secrete a slightly alkaline fluid, milky or white in appearance, that usually constitutes 50–75% of the volume of the semen along with spermatozoa and seminal vesicle fluid.

Series of glands that drain into a central duct,

60

Secrete fluid that becomes semen

61

63
Q

Bulbourethral glands: Structure

A

compound tubulo-alveolar glands, each approximately the size of a pea in humans.

64
Q

Bulbourethral glands: Function

A

During sexual arousal each gland produces a clear, salty, viscous secretion known as pre-ejaculate. This fluid helps to lubricate the urethra for spermatozoa to pass through, neutralizing traces of acidic urine in the urethra,[4] and helps flush out any residual urine or foreign matter.

65
Q

Bulbourethral glands: Where are they found

A

Posterior and lateral to the membranous portion of the urethra at the base of the penis, between the two layers of the fascia of the urogenital diaphragm, in the deep perineal pouch.
