Okay, so I’m studying anatomy and learning what all the accessory reproductive glands do and I’m confused as to why there’s a coagulant in the Seminal Vesicles only for the prostate to produce an Antigen just to break up that clot.
Why clot inside the female reproductive tract only to dissolve shortly after?
I don’t see the point.
In: Biology
the coagulum possibly keeps it from dripping out, and stops the sperm from activating prematurely. the antigen and an activation-inhibiting hormone are produced in the prostate. after ten or fifteen minutes the coagulum dissolves and the environment of the reproductive breaks down the inhibitor and activates the sperm, ensuring they’re in the right position to be successful before they activate.
