The correct answer is A. Production of spermatozoa

Step-by-step explanation:

The accessory glands in males include different glands and structures such as the bulbourethral glands, prostate gland, and seminal vesicles that produce different substance to protects or preserve spermatozoa by providing this ith nutrients, and buffers that regulate the pH, besides this, in the case of the seminal vesicles, these transport the spermatozoa and the other fluids. However, it is not a function of the accessory glands to produce spermatozoa as this occurs in the testes that are not part of the accessory glands.
