Biologically speaking, the main purpose of semen is to help sperm survive their journey to a female's egg, where fertilization occurs. In this respect, semen acts like a team of bodyguards; it carries sperm along, nourishes them and helps deliver them safely to their destination.
Sperm are produced in the testicles. They then spend 60 to 90 days in the epididymis (the coiled tubes draped above the testes), where they grow to maturity. Amazingly, the average ejaculate contains between 40 million to 600 million sperm

Semen is the thick, whitish secretion( discharge) of the male reproductive organs ( to help impregnate the opposite sex ). It is discharged from the urethra( opening in the penis) upon ejaculation. It contains various constituents, including Spermatozoa( which will cause pregnancy) in their nutrient plasma( it keeps the sperm active) and, secretions from the Prostate Gland, seminal vesicles, and,of various other glands. Also known As: Seminal fluid or Sperm. I know this is a little technical but, this is the definition in a nut shell (lol).
