Erythropoiesis in the earliest days of gestation is the function of:
1. | yolk sac | 2. | chorion |
3. | fetal bone marrow | 4. | amnion |
A second pregnancy during an ongoing pregnancy is prevented by:
1. | Estrogen | 2. | HPL |
3. | progesterone | 4. | HCG |
Type B spermatogonia divide to form:
1. | Type A spermatogonia. | 2. | spermatids. |
3. | a primary spermatocyte. | 4. | a secondary spermatocyte |
Identify the cell that can be seen in primordial, primary, secondary and tertiary follicle :
1. | oogonium | 2. | primary oocyte |
3. | secondary oocyte | 4. | ovum |
The number of mature ova produced by a young, healthy, nonpregnant adult woman each year would be:
1. | 0 | 2. | 6 |
3. | 12 | 4. | 24 |
Identify the correct statement:
1. | GnRH stimulates the production of estrogen [in females] or testosterone [in males] directly |
2. | LH stimulates ovulation (female) or spermatogenesis (male) |
3. | FSH initiates and maintains the development of accessory sex organs (both sexes) |
4. | estrogen stimulates oogenesis (female only) |
Identify the cells that are haploid: (1) spermatogonia (2) primary spermatocytes (3) secondary spermatocytes (4) spermatids (5) spermatozoa
1. | 1, 2, and 3 | 2. | 2, 3, 4, and 5 |
2. | 3, 4, and 5 | 4. | 4 and 5 only |
After leaving the testes, spermatozoa pass sequentially through the :
1. | seminiferous tubule, rete testis, efferent ductule, and epididymis |
2. | epididymis, ductus deferens, seminal vesicle, and ejaculatory duct |
3. | membranous urethra, prostatic urethra, and spongy urethra |
4. | epididymis, ductus deferens, ejaculatory duct, and urethra |
The process of maturation of spermatids to sperms and the cells that facilitate this process are respectively:
1. spermiogenesis; sustentacular cells
2. spematocytogenesis; spermatogonia
3. spermiation; Sertoli cells
4. spermatogenesis; interstitial cells
Ectopic pregnancies are referred to as :
1. | pregnancies with a genetic abnormality |
2. | implantation of the embryo at a site other than the uterus |
3. | implantation of a defective embryo in the uterus |
4. | pregnancies terminated due to hormonal imbalance |
