Ejaculatory system, illustration


Ejaculatory system. Illustration of a posterior view of the prostate (3) and seminal vesicles (2). The prostate and seminal vesicles secrete the majority of fluid that makes up the semen. This is mixed with sperm (from the epididymis) transported by the vas deferens, before being expelled along the urethra through the penis. From Traite d'Anatomie Humaine (1931) by French anatomist Leo Testut (1849-1925).
