Chapter 19 Reproductive System Quizlet Questions
Question 1 of 5
What is the first stage of labour?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Dilation of the cervix. This is the first stage of labor, where the cervix begins to open and thin out to allow the baby to pass through the birth canal. This process is crucial in preparing the body for delivery. The other choices are incorrect as they occur in later stages of labor. B: Delivery of the infant is the second stage, C: Contraction of the uterus is a general process throughout labor, and D: Delivery of the placenta is the third stage after the baby is born.
Question 2 of 5
Arterial supply of breast include
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Internal thoracic artery. The internal thoracic artery is a major branch of the subclavian artery and supplies the breast tissue. It gives rise to the perforating branches that supply the breast. The other choices, B, C, and D, are incorrect because the thoracoaromial artery primarily supplies the upper limb, the superior epigastric artery supplies the anterior abdominal wall, and the common carotid artery supplies the head and neck, but not the breast tissue. Therefore, based on the anatomical knowledge of arterial supply, the internal thoracic artery is the correct choice for the arterial supply of the breast.
Question 3 of 5
A client is concerned about her irregular menstrual periods since she has increased her daily workouts at the gym to 2 hours each day. What is the nurses’ best response?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Rationale: The correct answer is B because excessive exercise can lead to decreased body fat, which in turn disrupts hormone levels causing irregular periods. Choice A is inappropriate as it doesn't address the underlying issue. Choices C and D are incorrect as they refer to different conditions (bulimia and anorexia) not related to the client's concern.
Question 4 of 5
Where do sperm cells attain fertilization competence and motility?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: epididymis. Sperm cells attain fertilization competence and motility in the epididymis. Here's the rationale: 1. Sperm cells are produced in the seminiferous tubules of the testes. 2. They then move to the epididymis for maturation, where they gain motility and the ability to fertilize an egg. 3. The epididymis provides the ideal environment for sperm to undergo final maturation processes. 4. The rete testis is a network of tubules where sperm are transported from the seminiferous tubules, not where they gain fertilization competence. 5. The vas deferens is a duct that carries sperm from the epididymis to the urethra, not where sperm attain fertilization competence.
Question 5 of 5
The target of FSH is the _____.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: seminiferous tubule. FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) targets the seminiferous tubules in the testes to stimulate the production of sperm. FSH plays a crucial role in male reproductive function by promoting spermatogenesis. The other choices are incorrect because: A: Prostate - FSH does not directly target the prostate. C: Pituitary - FSH is secreted by the pituitary gland, it does not target the pituitary itself. D: Penis - FSH does not have a direct role in the structure or function of the penis.
