Disorders in Reproductive System Questions

Question 1 of 5

The ovary is located in the:

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: pelvic cavity. The ovary is located in the pelvic cavity because it is part of the female reproductive system and is situated within the pelvis. It is specifically housed in the adnexal region of the pelvis, attached to the uterus via ligaments. The abdominal cavity (choice A) is too high up in the body to house the ovary. The inguinal region (choice C) is located in the lower abdomen near the groin and does not contain the ovary. The lumbar region (choice D) is located in the lower back and is not where the ovary is located.

Question 2 of 5

The vagina is inserted on the:

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: cervix. The vagina is inserted on the cervix, which is the lower part of the uterus that connects the uterus to the vagina. The cervix serves as a passageway for sperm to enter the uterus and for menstrual blood to exit. The other choices (A: uterine corpus, B: uterine cervix, C: Fallopian tube) are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the anatomical structure where the vagina is inserted. It is essential to understand the specific anatomical relationships to identify the correct answer.

Question 3 of 5

The female sex of the child involves the following during fecundation:

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because during fecundation, the female sex of the child is determined by the presence of the X sex chromosome in the spermatozoon and the ovule. This leads to the combination of XX chromosomes, resulting in a female child. Choice A (spermatozoon with X chromosome) alone would lead to a female child, but it requires the ovule to also have an X chromosome for the correct combination. Choice B (spermatozoon with Y chromosome) would result in a male child. Choice C (ovule with Y chromosome) is incorrect as the ovule always contains an X chromosome. Thus, the correct combination for a female child is when the spermatozoon contains the X chromosome and the ovule contains the X chromosome.
