Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the anatomy of the male reproductive system, specifically the structures involved in the transport of semen and other fluids. The prostatic urethra is a section of the urethra that passes through the prostate gland.
Review the function of the seminal vesicle. It produces seminal fluid but does not directly empty into the prostatic urethra. Instead, its secretions are delivered to the ejaculatory duct.
Examine the role of the prostate gland. It secretes fluid that contributes to semen and empties directly into the prostatic urethra through small ducts.
Analyze the bulbourethral gland. It produces pre-ejaculatory fluid that is released into the spongy urethra, not the prostatic urethra.
Understand the function of the ejaculatory duct. It carries sperm and seminal fluid from the seminal vesicle and empties into the prostatic urethra.
