Which structure secretes glucose-rich fluid into the semen?

a. Seminal vesicles
b. Ejaculatory duct
c. Prostate gland
d. Cowper gland


ANS: A
The ducts of the seminal vesicles join the ampulla of the vas deferens to become the ejaculatory duct, which contracts rhythmically during emission and ejaculation. Such glucose secretion is not associated with the ejaculatory duct, the prostate, or the Cowper gland. The Cowper gland se-cretes the last fluid into the ejaculate.
