Answer:
(a) Seminal Fluid
Explanation:
Seminal fluid is a fluid that is secreted by the male reproductive system that contains 2-5% sperm cells. This fluid keeps sperm cells viable and helps transport them to the uterus for fertilization. The components or seminal fluid are secreted by the specialized accessory glands, perhaps the best known is the prostate gland. Seminal fluid constitutes water, glandular cells, immune cells, vitamins, hormones, carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, mucus, organic acids, salts, and microbes. Seminal fluid helps sperms by providing energy, nutrition, and immune defense, and alters the reproductive tract-pH. It contributes to the sperms' transportation, motility, capacitation, and fertilization ability.
