The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the location of the seminal vesicles, we will analyze each option step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Seminal Vesicles**: - Seminal vesicles are paired male accessory glands located in the male reproductive system. They are responsible for secreting a fluid that nourishes and helps transport sperm. 2. **Identifying the Location**: - The question asks where the seminal vesicles are located in relation to the given options. We need to determine which structure is below the seminal vesicles. 3. **Analyzing Each Option**: - **Option (a) Caput epididymis**: The caput epididymis is part of the epididymis, which is located above the seminal vesicles. Therefore, this option is incorrect. - **Option (b) Uterus**: The uterus is a female reproductive organ and is not relevant to the male reproductive system. Thus, this option is also incorrect. - **Option (c) Cowper's gland (Bulbourethral gland)**: The Cowper's gland is located below the seminal vesicles. This option is a strong candidate. - **Option (d) Glans penis**: The glans penis is the tip of the penis and is also located below the seminal vesicles. Therefore, this option is incorrect. 4. **Conclusion**: - Based on the analysis, the seminal vesicles are located above the Cowper's gland (bulbourethral gland). Thus, the correct answer is **(c) Cowper's gland**. ### Final Answer: (c) Cowper's gland
