Reproductive System Quizlet Anatomy Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which cells are present in a male age five?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: spermatogonia. At the age of five, boys have not reached puberty yet, so they do not produce sperm cells. Spermatogonia are the precursor cells that give rise to sperm cells later in puberty. Spermatocytes are the cells that undergo meiosis to form sperm cells, spermatozoa are mature sperm cells, and spermatids are the immediate precursors to sperm cells. Therefore, the only cells present in a male age five would be spermatogonia, as they are the early-stage cells in the process of spermatogenesis.
Question 2 of 5
During ovulation, the oocyte passes into the _____.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: uterine tube. During ovulation, the mature oocyte is released from the ovary and travels through the uterine tube (fallopian tube) towards the uterus for potential fertilization. The uterine tube is the pathway for the oocyte to reach the uterus. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because the oocyte does not directly pass into the uterus, pelvic cavity, or ovary during ovulation.
Question 3 of 5
Which of these is not a function of estrogen?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 4 of 5
Where does implantation of the blastocyst occur?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: endometrium. After fertilization, the blastocyst travels through the uterine tubes and implants into the endometrium for further development. The endometrium is the inner lining of the uterus where implantation occurs to establish pregnancy. The uterine tubes (choice A) are the site of fertilization, but not implantation. The cervix (choice C) is the lower part of the uterus that connects to the vagina and does not play a role in implantation. The ovary (choice D) is where the egg is released during ovulation and not the site of implantation.
Question 5 of 5
Wolffian duct is also known as ____________.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Mesonephric duct. The Wolffian duct is also known as the mesonephric duct because it develops in the embryo to form the male reproductive system. It gives rise to various structures such as the epididymis, vas deferens, and seminal vesicles. The other choices are incorrect because the ejaculatory duct is formed by the union of the vas deferens and seminal vesicle, the major sublingual duct is associated with saliva production, and the cystic duct is part of the biliary system and not related to the male reproductive system.
