Solution
Male reproductive system:
The male reproductive system comprises organs and glands that are involved in the production and transport of the male gametes or sperms.
The two glands of the human male reproductive system are:
Prostate gland-
It is a gland of the male reproductive system situated near the urinary bladder, around the urethra.
This gland secretes an alkaline, milky fluid necessary for sperm motility.
Cowper's gland-
It is a gland of the male reproductive system attached to the urethra, below the prostate gland
This gland secretes slippery fluid that empties directly into the urethra. The secretion, along with the prostate gland secretion, makes the environment suitable for sperm survival.
