Why are the seminal vesicles important for human reproduction?

This might help:

The seminal vesicles (Latin: glandulae vesiculosae), vesicular glands, or seminal glands, are a pair of simple tubular glands posteroinferior to the urinary bladder of some male mammals. Seminal vesicles are located within the pelvis. They secrete fluid that partly composes the semen.

They pass through the prostate, and open into the urethra at the seminal colliculus. During ejaculation, semen passes through the prostate gland, enters the urethra and exits the body via the urinary meatus.

I believe that the answer is:

A. 

They allow the sperm to travel to the urethra to be released.

marin [14]

Answer:

a. He is missing a control group of mice that did not receive the new antibiotic.

Explanation:

In any experiment especially experiments testing effectiveness of a drug, there should be a control group.

The importance of a control group is to minimize the effects of other variables other than the independent variable hence increasing reliability of the results.

in this case, a group of mice that did not receive the new antibiotic would have served as the control group.
