A semen specimen is received in the laboratory. The following results were obtained. Lab Analysis: Color: Gray Volume: 3.5 mL Viscosity: Normal pH: 8.2 Sperm Concentration: 100 million/mL Sperm Motility: 60% with moderate forward progression Morphology: 50% normal forms a. Are the values normal or abnormal? List any abnormal values. b. What could be a physiological cause of the elevated pH? c. What is a possible analytical cause of the elevated pH?

A repeat semen analysis for fertility testing is reported as follows: • Volume: 3.5 mL • Viscosity: Normal • pH: 7.5 • Sperm Count: 6 million/mL • Sperm Motility: 30% • Morphology: <30% normal (30 spermatids/100 sperm) These results correspond with the results of the first analysis.
