The primary spermatocytes:

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because primary spermatocytes are diploid cells, containing a complete set of chromosomes (46 in humans). They are formed by spermatogonia through a process called meiosis. During meiosis, the primary spermatocytes undergo two divisions to generate haploid secondary spermatocytes with half the number of chromosomes. Choices A and C are incorrect because primary spermatocytes are formed by spermatogonia undergoing meiosis, not mitosis, and they generate secondary spermatocytes, not the other way around. Choice B is incorrect because primary spermatocytes are diploid, not haploid.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C, ovary. The Fallopian tube is located between the ovary and the uterus. It serves as the passage for the egg to travel from the ovary to the uterus. The other choices are incorrect because the uterus (choice A) is where the fertilized egg implants and grows during pregnancy, the vagina (choice B) is the canal leading from the outside of the body to the uterus, and the vulva (choice D) is the external genitalia. Therefore, only the ovary (choice C) is the correct anatomical structure that is connected to the Fallopian tube.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: ovulation. Pituitary LH (Luteinizing Hormone) is responsible for triggering ovulation in the menstrual cycle. LH surge leads to the release of the mature egg from the ovarian follicle. The other choices are incorrect because: B: progesterone secretion is mainly regulated by the hormone progesterone itself and not directly by pituitary LH; C: the corpus albicans is a remnant of the ruptured ovarian follicle and is not directly controlled by LH; D: follicular maturation is primarily regulated by FSH (Follicle-Stimulating Hormone) rather than LH.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C because reproduction in humans typically involves the fusion of gametes with chromosomes that are not paired, resulting in the formation of a zygote with a complete set of paired chromosomes. This process is known as sexual reproduction. Choice A, cloning, does not involve the fusion of gametes and is a form of asexual reproduction. Choice B, mitotic cell division of gametes, is incorrect as gametes undergo meiosis to form haploid cells, not mitosis. Choice D, external fertilization of sex cells, is not typical in humans as fertilization usually occurs internally.
