Expert Answer
Accessory reproductive organs are those structures which help in the transfer and meeting of the two kinds of sex cells.
Accessory glands in male reproductive system are:
1. Seminal vesicles
2. Prostate gland
3. Cowper's gland
Seminal vesicles secrete an alkaline medium for the transportation of sperms. The mixture of the fluid and sperms is known as semen. Prostate glands pour its alkaline secretion into the semen to neutralize acid in female vagina. Secretion of Cowper’s gland acts as a lubricant.
