What is the role of the seminal vesicles and the prostate gland?
Seminal vesicles and prostate gland both are the accessory sex glands in male reproduction system.seminal vesicle secrete fluid that consist of nutrientsthat support sperm until fertilisation occurs.
Seminal vesicles contains hormone called prostaglandins, which stimulate contraction in the female reproductive system for the transportation of sperms to the oviduct with ovum.
Prostate gland secretes thin, milky and acidic fluid which is discharged into the part of urethra. It also contains sperms nutrient and some anticoagulant enzymes. Their secretion activates the sperms to swim fluently.
