The fluid ejaculated from the penis is
A
sperm
B
semen
C
urine
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Here, secretions from the seminal vesicle located next to the ampulla are added. Next, the seminal fluid is propelled forward through the ejaculatory ducts toward the urethra. As it passes the prostate gland, a milky fluid is added to make semen. Finally, the semen is ejaculated from the penis through the urethra.

Detailed explanation-2: -Indeed, the NHS Choices website (2010) states that ‘Millions of sperm are also found in the liquid produced by the penis as soon as it is erect (hard). This means that a man doesn’t have to ejaculate for pregnancy to occur’. Identical statements are found on many other websites.
