Question

Seminal plasma of humans is rich in

• A. Fructose and certain enzymes, poor in Ca${}^{2+}$
• B. Fructose, Ca${}^{2+}$ and certain enzymes
• C. Fructose, Ca${}^{2+}$ but no enzymes
• D. Glucose, certain enzymes but no Ca${}^{2+}$

Answer 1

The correct option is B Fructose, Ca${}^{2+}$ and certain enzymes

The male accessory glands include paired seminal vesicles, a prostate and paired bulbourethral gland. Secretions of these glands constitute the seminal plasma which is rich in Fructose calcium and certain enzymes. Secretions of prostate glands are alkaline in nature which helps in the neutralization of acidity of the vagina. The secretions of bulbourethral glands help in the lubrication of the penis.

So, the correct option is 'Fructose, Ca${}^{2+}$ and certain enzymes'.
