The rectum is located anterior to the uterus. Correct! The ovaries are the site of estrogen and egg production. It contains the site of the vas deferens Question 2 2.5 / 2.5 pts Which of the following statements is true concerning oogenesis? A. It begins at the time of puberty. Correct! B. The primary oocyte divides to produce a secondary oocyte. C. Each primary oocyte produces in two to three mature ova. D. The first polar body maintains all the cytoplasm. E. B&C are true Question 3 2.5 / 2.5 pts The ovarian follicle becomes the ____________ after ovulation. Your Answer: corpus luteum Corpus luteum Question 4 2.5 / 2.5 pts Name the specific region of the reproductive system highlighted in blue below (also indicated by the arrow). Describe the purpose of the cervix during pregnancy. Your Answer: During pregnancy, there is a mucus plug that fills the opening of the cervix and this is a form of protection for the growing fetus. With the closed cervix, it holds the growing fetus in place during the pregnancy. When a female becomes pregnant a mucus plug develops in the cervix and prevents any bacteria or pathogens from entering the uterus, thus protecting the health of the developing fetus. A firm, closed cervix also holds the developing fetus in the uterus until it reaches full term. Question 8 6 / 6 pts Label the regions of the reproductive system in the figure below: (A-C) A: ___________ B: ___________ C: ___________ Your Answer: A- Labia majora B- Labia minora C- Vaginal orifice A. Labia majora B. Labia minora C. Vaginal orifice Question 9 2 / 2 pts True or False: Each mammary gland contains 12- 24 lobules. Correct! True one to two dozen False Question 10 2 / 2 pts True or False: Colostrum has a similar composition to milk but contains a lower concentration of protein. True Correct! False higher concentration of protein Question 11 3 / 3 pts Blood tests indicate that progesterone and estrogen levels are both increased. Your patient is most likely in what phase of the female uterine cycle? Menstrual phase Proliferative phase Correct! Secretory phase The corpus luteum secretes progesterone, estrogen levels remain elevated until the end of the secretory phase. Luteal and Follicular are ovarian cycles, not uterine cycles. Luteal phase Follicular phase Question 15 4 / 4 pts Which of the following is true concerning spermatogenesis? Production of sperm takes 20 days. Spermatogenesis is complete at the time of birth. Males have all the sperm at birth that will be made during their lifetime. Correct! Each primary spermatocyte produces four viable gametes. Each gamete has a total of 46 chromosomes. Question 16 6 / 6 pts Label the regions of reproductive system below: (A-E). To receive full credit you must name specific regions. A: _________________ B: _________________ C: (in blue) _______________ D: _________________ E: _________________ Your Answer: A- Vas derefens B- Seminal vesicle C- Ejaculatory duct D - Prostate gland E - Bulbourethral gland A: Vas Deferens B: Seminal Vesicles C: Ejaculatory Duct D: Prostate gland E: Bulbourethral gland Question 17 5 / 5 pts Name and discuss the purpose of the region of sperm indicated by the arrow in the figure below. Your Answer: The head contains the male DNA. The crown of the sperm cell is called the acrosome and in order for the sperm to penetrate the ovum, acrosomal enzymes become present and break down the membrane of the ovum (female egg). The head is almost entirely nucleus containing the cell DNA with a crown called the acrosome which contains enzymes that breakdown the membrane of the egg to allow the sperm to penetrate. Question 18 5 / 5 pts Discuss in detail the action of sperm needed to fertilize an egg. Your Answer: Once the sperm reaches the ovum , it releases an enzyme that breaks down the corona radiata of the ovum. Enough enzymes are released to allow one sperm to enter the ovum. Once this one sprem fuses with the ovum, the membrane of the ovum changes in order to prevent any other sperm from entering. The egg releases chemicals that attract the sperm. Sperm cells release enzymes that break apart the corona radiata, follicle cells surrounding the egg. Once this is accomplished, more sperm release acrosomal enzymes that make a hole in the membrane of the egg, allowing one sperm cell to combine with the egg. When the union of egg and one sperm occurs, the membrane of the egg instantly chemically changes, preventing other sperm from penetrating the egg. Question 19 4 / 4 pts 1st trimester Correct Answer 2nd trimester Answer 4: Correct! 3rd trimester Answer 5: Correct! 3rd trimester Question 22 4 / 4 pts Find the steps that correctly order neurulation: A. Ectoderm→ neural crest → convergence → neural groove → brain B. Endoderm→ neural groove → convergence → neural tube and neural crest Correct! C. Ectoderm→ convergence→ neural fold → neural tube → spinal cord D. Endoderm→ convergence→ neural crest → neural groove → spinal cord Question 23 6 / 6 pts Name and discuss the stage of labor that best describes the figure below: Your Answer: This is the first stage which involves the dilation of the cervix. The uterus is contracting and this pushes the head of the baby towards the cervix thus causing the cervix to dilate. The first stage, dilation of the cervix, is the time it takes for the mother’s cervix to dilate to ten centimeters. During this stage the uterus contracts, which pushes the baby’s head against the cervix causing it to dilate (widen). This stage of labor is the longest, lasting, on average 6-10 hours. Oxytocin is a hormone that is released from the posterior pituitary gland to stimulate contractions in the myometrium of the uterus. As contractions continue, oxytocin is increasingly released until the baby is born. Quiz Score: 98 out of 100
