Seminal vesicle, light micrograph
Seminal vesicle. Light micrograph of a section through the seminal vesicle showing the complex mucosal folding.Pseudostratified cuboidal epithelium overlies the loose connective tissue of the lamina propria. The seminal vesicles are a pair of glands situated on each side of the male urinary bladder that secrete seminal fluid and nourish and promote the movement of spermatozoa through the urethra.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a light micrograph of the seminal vesicle, providing a fascinating glimpse into the intricate world of human reproduction. The image reveals the complex mucosal folding within the seminal vesicle, with a pseudostratified cuboidal epithelium overlaying the loose connective tissue of the lamina propria. Situated on each side of the male urinary bladder, these pair of glands play a vital role in reproductive function. They secrete seminal fluid, which not only nourishes but also aids in promoting the movement of spermatozoa through the urethra. This crucial process is essential for successful fertilization and procreation. With a magnification level set at x100 when printed at 10 centimeters wide, this photograph allows us to appreciate and study various aspects of this anatomical structure in detail. It serves as an invaluable resource for biologists and researchers studying healthy male reproductive systems. The image captures both normalcy and complexity simultaneously, highlighting its significance in understanding our biological makeup. By shedding light on such fundamental structures within our bodies, Science Photo Library continues to contribute immensely to scientific knowledge without any commercial intent or affiliation mentioned here.
