Female gonads are called

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Ovaries. Female gonads are responsible for producing eggs and releasing hormones like estrogen and progesterone. The other choices, A: Testes, are male gonads responsible for producing sperm. B: Vagina is a part of the female reproductive system but not a gonad. C: Cervix is a part of the female reproductive system that connects the uterus to the vagina, but it is not a gonad. Therefore, the correct answer is ovaries as they are the female gonads responsible for egg production and hormone secretion.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Estrogen replacement therapy is given to relieve the symptoms of menopause because it helps alleviate hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and other menopausal symptoms by replacing the declining estrogen levels in the body. Cervicitis is inflammation of the cervix and is not treated with estrogen therapy. Pregnancy naturally increases estrogen levels and does not require estrogen replacement therapy. Endometriosis is a condition where endometrial tissue grows outside the uterus and is not specifically treated with estrogen replacement therapy. In summary, estrogen replacement therapy is indicated for menopausal symptoms due to declining estrogen levels.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Seminal vesicle. Seminal vesicles are located just beneath the urinary bladder and produce fluids that aid in nourishment and provide energy to sperm cells. They contribute a significant portion of seminal fluid, which contains nutrients and substances that enhance sperm motility and viability. The other choices are incorrect because: A (Bulbourethral glands) produce pre-ejaculate fluid for lubrication, B (Bartholin's glands) are located near the vaginal opening in females, and D (Prostate gland) produces a fluid that helps with sperm motility and viability but is not located just beneath the urinary bladder.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Trabecular bone, also known as spongy bone, is characterized by its porous structure with trabeculae. It is found at the ends of long bones and inside flat bones. Spongy bone provides structural support and flexibility. Compact bone (A) is dense and forms the outer layer of bones. Cortical bone (B) is synonymous with compact bone. Choice D is incorrect as trabecular bone is specifically known as spongy bone.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Dislocation is the correct answer because it specifically refers to the displacement of a bone from its joint. A fracture (choice A) is a break in a bone, not a displacement. Choice C, displacement, is too general and does not specify the bone being out of a joint. A sprain (choice D) involves the stretching or tearing of ligaments, not the displacement of a bone. Therefore, dislocation is the most accurate term for the scenario described.
