Take MCQ Biology Test

1.
How is the entry of only one sperm and not many,ensured into an ovum during fertilisation in humans?
2.
What is colostrum?Why are breast-fed babies likely to be healthy?
3.
Explain the functions of myometrium and endometrium in human females.
4.
What are the major functions of male accessory ducts and glands?
5.
Name the pituitary hormones influencing Leydig cells and Sertoli cells present in human testes.Explain the functions of these cells.
6.
Identify True/False statements. Correct each false statement to make it true:
(a) Androgens are produced by Sertoli cells. (True/False)
(b) Spermatozoa get nutrition from Sertoli cells. (True/False)
(c) Leydig cells are found in ovary. (True/False)
(d) Leydig cells synthesise androgens. (True/False)
(e) Oogenesis takes place in corpus luteum. (True/False)
(f) Menstrual cycle ceases during pregnancy. (True/False)
(g) Presence or absence of hymen is not a reliable indicator of virginity or sexual experience. (True/False)
7.
The correct sequence of spermatogenic stages leading to the formation of sperms in a mature human testis is
spermatogonia-spermatid-spermatocyte-sperms
spermatocyte-spermatogonia-spermatid-sperms
spermatogonia-spermatocyte-spermatid-sperms
spermatid-spermatocyte-spermatogonia-sperms
8.
Which one of the following is the most likely root cause why menstruation is not taking place in the regularly cycling human female?
retention of well-developed corpus luteum
fertilization of the ovum
maintenance of the hypertrophical endometrial lining
maintenance of high conc. of sex hormones in the blood stream
9.
Which one of the following is the correct matching of the events occurring during menstrual cycle?
Menstruation: breakdown of myometrium and ovum not fertilized
Ovulation:LH and FSH attain peak level and sharp fall the in secretion of progesterone.
Proliferative phase: Rapid regeneration of myometrium and maturation of Graafian follicle
Development of corpus luteum: Secretary phase and increased secretion of progesterone
10.
Foetal ejection reflex in human female is induced by
differentiation of mammary glands
the pressure exerted by amniotic fluid
the release of oxytocin from pituitary
fully developed foetus and placenta
11.
Some important events in the human female reproductive cycle are given below.Arrange the events in a proper sequence.A-secretion of FSH, B-growth of corpus luteum, C-growth of the follicle and oogenesis, D-ovulation, E-sudden increase in the levels of LH

1.
( )
The changes induced in the zona pellucida of the ovum by the sperm coming in contact with it,block the entry of any other sperm and ensures the entry of only one sperm.
2.
Colostrum refers to the milk that comes out of the mammary glands of the mother during the initial few days of lactation following partuirition.
It contains several antibodies,which are essential for developing resistance in the new born babies;hence the breast-fed babies are likely to be healthy.
3.
Endometrium is the glandular layer,where implantation occurs;it also forms a part of the placenta.
Myometrium is the muscular layer,whose vigorous contractions at the end of gestation lead to parturition.
4.
The male accessory ducts are rete testis, vasa efferentia, epididymis and vas deferens.These ducts store and transport the sperms from the testes to the outside through the urethra. The male accessory glands are paired seminal vesicles, prostate gland and paired Bulbourethral glands. The secretion of these glands forms seminal plasma, which is rich in fructose, calcium and certain enzymes. The secretion of Bulbourethral glands lubricates the glans penis.
5.
Luteinizing hormone influences Leydig cells;they secrete the hormone,testosterone.
Follicle stimulating hormone influences Sertoli cells;they produce certain factors necessary for spermiogenesis.
6.
(a) False
Androgens are formed by Leydig cells.
(b) True.
(c) False
Oogenesis takes place in the ovarian follicles.
(d) True
(e) False
Oogenesis occurs in the female embryo before birth but does not complete until puberty.
(f) True.
(g) True.
7.
(c)
spermatogonia-spermatocyte-spermatid-sperms
8.
(d)
maintenance of high conc. of sex hormones in the blood stream
9.
(d)
Development of corpus luteum: Secretary phase and increased secretion of progesterone
10.
(d)
fully developed foetus and placenta
