Reproductive System Quizlet Questions
Question 1 of 5
The sperm cells:
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Step-by-step rationale for choice A being correct: 1. Sperm cells need to be mobile to reach the egg for fertilization. 2. Seminal fluid provides the environment for sperm motility. 3. Sperm cells acquire motility in the seminal fluid due to specific nutrients and ions present. Summary of why other choices are incorrect: - Choice B: Being microscopic is a general characteristic of sperm cells but not specific to their mobility. - Choice C: Sperm cells are stored in the epididymis, not the "crotum." - Choice D: Sperm cells are all of the same kind, not three different kinds.
Question 2 of 5
The lateral extremity of the Fallopian tube:
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Step-by-step rationale for why choice D is correct: 1. The lateral extremity of the Fallopian tube is connected to the uterus through the uterine ostium. 2. This connection allows the passage of the ovum from the Fallopian tube to the uterus for implantation. 3. The uterine ostium serves as the entry point for the ovum to travel from the Fallopian tube to the uterus. 4. Therefore, choice D is correct as it accurately describes the anatomical connection between the Fallopian tube and the uterus. Summary: - Choice A is incorrect because the lateral extremity of the Fallopian tube does not open in the abdominal cavity. - Choice B is incorrect because the Fallopian tube does not capture the ovule released by the ovary. - Choice C is incorrect because the lateral extremity of the Fallopian tube does not display flared edges. - Choice D is correct as it accurately describes the anatomical connection
Question 3 of 5
The pituitary FSH controls:
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The pituitary FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone) controls the maturation of ovarian follicles by stimulating their growth and development. FSH plays a crucial role in the early stages of the menstrual cycle. Estrogen secretion is primarily regulated by the ovaries, not FSH. Ovulation is mainly triggered by the surge in LH (Luteinizing Hormone) levels, not FSH. Progesterone secretion is mainly controlled by the corpus luteum, which forms after ovulation, not directly by FSH. Therefore, the correct answer is A as FSH directly influences the growth and maturation of ovarian follicles.
Question 4 of 5
The reproductive cycle of a human is usually regulated by
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: hormones. Hormones play a crucial role in regulating the human reproductive cycle by controlling the release of gametes and coordinating the processes of ovulation and menstruation. Hormones such as estrogen and progesterone interact with the reproductive organs to maintain the menstrual cycle and facilitate fertility. Natural selection (C) is the mechanism of evolution, not directly related to regulating the reproductive cycle. Immune responses (D) are involved in protecting the body from pathogens, not in regulating the reproductive cycle. Gametes (A) are the reproductive cells, but they are not responsible for regulating the reproductive cycle.
