Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The bulbourethral glands, prostate gland, and seminal vesicles all contribute secretions that form part of semen. The bulbourethral glands produce a pre-ejaculate fluid that lubricates the urethra. The prostate gland contributes additional fluid that contains enzymes, prostate specific antigen (PSA), and other substances to nourish and support sperm. The seminal vesicles produce a significant portion of the ejaculate volume, which includes fructose and other substances that provide energy for the sperm. The testes produce sperm but not the fluid part of semen. The ductus deferens transports sperm but does not add to the semen's fluid content. The anterior pituitary gland is involved in hormone regulation and does not directly contribute to semen production.
