Human Reproductive System Quizlet Questions
Question 1 of 5
The nurse observes that the urinary meatus is located on the undersurface of the penis. How does the nurse document this finding?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Hypospadias. In hypospadias, the urinary meatus is located on the undersurface of the penis. This condition occurs due to abnormal development of the urethral opening. To document this finding, the nurse should use accurate terminology. A: Balanitis is inflammation of the glans penis and is not related to the location of the urinary meatus. B: Phimosis is the inability to retract the foreskin over the glans penis and is not related to the location of the urinary meatus. C: Epispadias is a rare condition where the urinary meatus is located on the upper side of the penis, opposite to hypospadias.
Question 2 of 5
Which patients meet the criteria for Chlamydia screening?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C because the 22-year-old woman who is sexually active and uses barrier protection inconsistently is at higher risk for Chlamydia infection. Inconsistent use of barrier protection increases the likelihood of exposure to the infection. The other choices (A, B, D) do not specifically mention increased risk factors for Chlamydia. Choice A mentions consistent barrier protection, which lowers the risk. Choice B mentions having one partner, which may reduce the risk compared to multiple partners. Choice D mentions having multiple partners, which increases the risk, but it does not mention current risky behavior like inconsistent barrier protection.
Question 3 of 5
After scheduling a patient with a possible ovarian cyst for ultrasound, the nurse will teach the patient that she should
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: experience mild abdominal cramps after the procedure. This is because ultrasound imaging for ovarian cysts is non-invasive and does not involve the use of IV contrast or require the patient to drink fluids before the procedure. The patient may experience mild abdominal cramps due to the pressure applied during the ultrasound, but this is temporary and not a cause for concern. Discontinuing aspirin is not necessary for an ultrasound procedure.
Question 4 of 5
Choose the correct sequence of human embryonic development.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct sequence of human embryonic development is D: Fertilization - cleavage - gastrulation - organogenesis. 1. Fertilization: The union of egg and sperm forms a zygote. 2. Cleavage: Zygote undergoes rapid cell division without growth. 3. Gastrulation: Formation of three germ layers (ectoderm, mesoderm, endoderm). 4. Organogenesis: Organ formation from germ layers. This sequence reflects the chronological order of events in early human development. Choice A is incorrect as organogenesis occurs after gastrulation. Choice B is incorrect as fertilization should precede cleavage. Choice C is incorrect as organogenesis occurs after gastrulation.
Question 5 of 5
Which statement is true for the reproduction of reptiles and birds?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: They are both ovoviviparous. Reptiles and birds are ovoviviparous, meaning they lay eggs that hatch internally and give birth to live young. Reptiles and birds do not require parental care immediately after birth, so choice A is incorrect. They reproduce through internal fertilization, making choice C incorrect. Reproduction through asexual means is not common in reptiles and birds, making choice D incorrect.
