Chapter 19 Reproductive System Quizlet Questions
Question 1 of 5
The evolutionary stages of the ovarian follicles are:
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: primordial. Ovarian follicles go through several stages of development. Primordial follicles are the earliest stage, containing primary oocytes surrounded by a single layer of squamous cells. This stage represents the resting pool of follicles. Secondary follicles come next, with primary oocytes surrounded by multiple layers of granulosa cells. Tertiary (de Graaf) follicles are the most advanced stage, containing a fluid-filled antrum and a mature oocyte. Evolutionary is not a recognized stage in ovarian follicle development. Secondary is incorrect as it comes after primordial, and tertiary is incorrect as it is not the earliest stage.
Question 2 of 5
The following take part in the fecundation process:
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C, one ovule with two nuclei, which means the pregnancy is monovitelline twin. This is correct because during fertilization, a single sperm fertilizes an ovum, resulting in the formation of a zygote with two nuclei. Monovitelline twins originate from the splitting of a single fertilized egg, leading to two embryos with shared genetic material. The other choices, A and B, are incorrect as they do not accurately represent the process of fecundation. Choice A refers to a single ovule before fertilization, and choice B refers to a single spermatozoon, which is involved in fertilization but does not lead to the formation of twins. Choice D is also incorrect as it describes bivitelline twins, which result from the fertilization of two separate eggs by two different sperm, leading to genetically distinct individuals.
Question 3 of 5
Within which structure in the human body does specialization of parts of the developing baby take place?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: uterus. Specialization of parts of the developing baby takes place in the uterus during pregnancy. The uterus is where the fertilized egg implants and the embryo develops into a specialized structure known as a fetus. The other choices (A: ovary, C: testis, D: pancreas) do not play a direct role in the development of the baby during pregnancy. The ovary is involved in producing eggs, the testis produces sperm, and the pancreas is responsible for producing digestive enzymes and hormones, but they are not directly involved in the specialization of parts of the developing baby.
