In the case of the bulbourethral gland, such secretions leave the body through the urethra. A clear, colorless, and somewhat viscous component of pre-ejaculatory fluid, known as Cowperâs fluid, is discharged by the bulbourethral gland into the urethra when the male becomes sexually aroused. It is then secreted out of the body through the urethra before ejaculation.
There are two types of secretions - serous and mucous. The acini can either be serous, mucous, or a mixture of serous and mucous. A serous acinus secretes proteins in an isotonic watery fluid. In a mixed serous-mucous acinus, the serous acinus forms a serous demilune around mucous acinus, as shown in the diagram.
