Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option B: Testes produce sperm and testosterone, not the milky fluid described.
• Option C: Vas deferens transports sperm, not produce the fluid.
• Option D: Seminal vesicles produce a thick, yellowish fluid (not thin and milky) that makes up most of semen volume.
• Option E: Ovaries are female reproductive organs, irrelevant here.
