Solution

The correct option is D It is an unpaired gland.
Seminal vesicles, one of the accessory glands associated with the male reproductive system, are paired (two in number) and are present at the base of the bladder.

They produce alkaline secretions which constitute 60% of semen and the secretions contain fructose, which provides energy for the movement of sperms.
