Question 1 of 5

The spermatozoon is made up of:

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: head. The spermatozoon is composed of three main parts: head, mid piece or neck, and flagellum. The head contains the nucleus which carries genetic material. The mid piece or neck contains mitochondria for energy production. The flagellum is responsible for sperm motility. In this question, the head is the most essential part of the spermatozoon as it contains the genetic material required for fertilization. The other choices (B: mid piece or neck, C: flagellum, D: body) are incorrect as they are important for sperm function but do not carry the genetic material necessary for fertilization.

Question 2 of 5

The Fallopian tube is linked to the:

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: uterus. The Fallopian tube connects the ovaries to the uterus, allowing eggs to travel from the ovaries to the uterus for fertilization. The vagina (A) is not directly connected to the Fallopian tube but serves as the birth canal. The ovary (C) is where eggs are produced and released into the Fallopian tube, not directly linked to it. The vulva (D) is the external part of the female genitalia and is not connected to the Fallopian tube.

Question 3 of 5

The uterine artery vascularizes:

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: the uterus. The uterine artery vascularizes the uterus, providing the main blood supply to this reproductive organ. This artery plays a crucial role in supplying oxygen and nutrients to the uterus, supporting the growth and development of the endometrium and the fetus during pregnancy. Choice A, the vagina, is incorrect because the vaginal artery, not the uterine artery, supplies blood to the vagina. Choice B, the Fallopian tubes, is incorrect as they are primarily vascularized by the tubal branches of the ovarian arteries. Choice D, the vulva, is also incorrect as the blood supply to the vulva comes from multiple sources including the internal pudendal artery and the external pudendal artery, not the uterine artery.

Question 4 of 5

Which statement describes a function of the human male reproductive system?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A because the primary function of the human male reproductive system is to produce gametes (sperm) in the testes. Sperm are essential for fertilization and reproduction. Choice B is incorrect as the fluid that protects the fetus is produced by the female reproductive system. Choice C is incorrect as embryo development support is provided by the female reproductive system. Choice D is incorrect as the placenta, which provides nutrient materials, is a structure formed by the female reproductive system during pregnancy.

Advanced breast cancer often metastasizes to the bone. If this occurs, a prudent nursing measure would be to

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
