Reproductive System Anatomy Quizlet Questions
Question 1 of 5
The process by which a secondary oocyte is ejected from the ovary is called ________.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: ovulation. This process involves the release of a mature egg (secondary oocyte) from the ovarian follicle. During ovulation, the egg is released into the fallopian tube, where it can potentially be fertilized by sperm. A: emission - Incorrect. This term typically refers to the discharge of semen from the male reproductive system. B: menses - Incorrect. Menses refers to the shedding of the uterine lining during menstruation, not the release of an egg from the ovary. C: fertilization - Incorrect. Fertilization is the process of the sperm uniting with the egg, which occurs in the fallopian tube after ovulation.
Question 2 of 5
The hormone that promotes a small protrudes into the vagina is the number of primary follicles within the ________. ovary to grow and mature each month
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: hymen. The hormone that promotes the growth and maturation of primary follicles in the ovary each month is follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), not luteinizing hormone (LH) as mentioned in choice C. Choices A and B are anatomical structures not related to follicular development. The hymen is a thin membrane at the vaginal opening and has no direct role in promoting follicle growth. However, it is the most related choice as it is the only one that is a part of the female reproductive system.
Question 3 of 5
The process in which sperm are hormone (FSH) have on males? streamlined into a head, midpiece,
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: spermatogenesis. Spermatogenesis is the process by which sperm cells are produced in the male testes. FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) plays a crucial role in stimulating the production of sperm within the testes. During spermatogenesis, sperm cells go through various stages of development, including the formation of a head, midpiece, and tail. The other choices are incorrect because: A: Male testes are not and tail is called ________. This statement is incomplete and does not make sense in the context of the question. C: FSH functions solely in. This choice is incomplete and does not provide any relevant information about the process of sperm production. D: Acrosomal reaction. This term refers to a specific event that occurs during fertilization and is not directly related to the overall process of sperm production in the testes.
Question 4 of 5
An embryo is known as a fetus during parturition? by the ________ week of pregnancy.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: second. An embryo is known as a fetus during parturition by the second week of pregnancy. This is because by the end of the eighth week of gestation, the embryo has developed all major organs and structures, transitioning to the fetal stage. Choice A is incorrect because oxytocin increases during labor, not by the second week of pregnancy. Choice B is incorrect as the first contractions of the uterus occur during labor, not during the second week of pregnancy. Choice D is incorrect as oxytocin actually promotes uterine contractions during labor.
Question 5 of 5
The primary oocyte completes its first meiotic division
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because the primary oocyte completes its first meiotic division just before fertilization. This occurs when the oocyte is released from the ovary during ovulation. The meiotic division is completed when the sperm penetrates the oocyte, forming a zygote. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because the primary oocyte does not complete its first meiotic division during fetal development, just after ovulation, or just before ovulation.
