Disorders in Reproductive System Questions
Question 1 of 5
What is line “C” pointing to?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Ovary. Line "C" is pointing to the ovary because it is the reproductive organ responsible for producing eggs and hormones in females. The ovary is located near the fimbriae and not the bladder or uterus. The fimbriae are finger-like projections near the ovary that help guide the released egg into the fallopian tube. The bladder is an organ unrelated to reproduction, and the uterus is a separate reproductive organ responsible for housing a developing fetus. Therefore, the correct choice is the ovary as it aligns with the function and location indicated by the diagram.
Question 2 of 5
Within each ovary there are thousands of small sacs called
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Graafian follicle. Within the ovary, thousands of small sacs called follicles develop and grow, with one dominant follicle eventually maturing into a Graafian follicle. This structure contains the ovum (egg) and is released during ovulation. Ova (A) are the mature eggs released from the Graafian follicle. Corpus luteum (C) forms after ovulation and produces hormones to support pregnancy. Cysts (D) are abnormal fluid-filled sacs that can develop in the ovaries, different from the normal follicles.
Question 3 of 5
Congenital opening of the male urethra on the undersurface of the penis is called:
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Step-by-step rationale: 1. Hypospadias is the congenital opening of the male urethra on the undersurface of the penis. 2. This condition results from incomplete closure of the urethral folds during fetal development. 3. Phimosis is the inability to retract the foreskin over the glans penis. 4. Epispadias is the congenital opening of the male urethra on the upper surface of the penis. 5. Herpes is a viral infection causing painful sores, but not related to the location of the urethral opening. Summary: Hypospadias is correct as it matches the description of the condition, while the other choices describe different conditions not related to the location of the urethral opening.
Question 4 of 5
The 16 feet long tube that is coiled and located above the
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: epididymis. The epididymis is a coiled tube located on the back of each testicle, approximately 16 feet long when unraveled. It plays a crucial role in sperm maturation and storage. The other choices, B: Vas deferens, C: Urethra, and D: Ureter, are incorrect as they are not coiled tubes located above the testicles and do not have the same function as the epididymis in sperm development and storage.
Question 5 of 5
Soft spots that refers to unossified areas in an infants skull is termed as
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Fontanelle. Fontanelles are soft spots in an infant's skull where the bones have not yet fully fused. They allow for the baby's brain to grow and accommodate the rapid brain development during the early months of life. Sulcus refers to a groove or furrow, sinus is a cavity within a bone, and suture is the line where two bones meet. These terms do not specifically refer to the unossified areas in an infant's skull, making them incorrect choices.
