Answers
Answer:
1)The prostate and the seminal vesicles produce fluid that nourishes the sperm. This fluid provides most of the volume of semen, the fluid in which the sperm is expelled during ejaculation. Other fluid that makes up a very small amount of the semen comes from the vas deferens and from Cowper glands in the urethra.
2)Being pregnant and delivering a child is considered to be a boon for every woman. Unfortunately, due to any untoward circumstances, a woman may not wish to carry an unwanted pregnancy. Such women search for ways to terminate pregnancy. The type of procedure depends on how many weeks a woman is pregnant.
3) The role of oral contraceptive pills:
Oral contraceptive pills also known as birth control pills. The sperms fuse with egg present in the ovary and fertilization. Oral contraceptive pills prevent the sperms from fusing with eggs by blocking the sperm route.
They prevent pregnancy and they served as the catalyst for the sex revolution. They believed to control the population to a great extent. They have considerably fewer side effects compared to other alternative prescribed methods.
