Question 1

In the adult male, millions of sperm cells are manufactured each day within the paired male gonads, the _______.&#10;A) testes&#10;B) scrotum&#10;C) seminal vesicles&#10;D) prostate

Accepted Answer

The testes are the paired male gonads responsible for producing sperm cells.

Question 2

Between the tubules in the testes are small islands of cells called _______ that produce the male hormone testosterone.&#10;A) sperm&#10;B) interstitial cells&#10;C) zygotes&#10;D) erectile tissue

Accepted Answer

The small islands of cells between the tubules in the testes are called interstitial cells, also known as Leydig cells. These cells are responsible for producing testosterone, the male sex hormone. Sperm, zygotes, and erectile tissue are not the correct answer choices, as they do not produce testosterone.

Question 3

_______ is a thick, whitish fluid consisting of sperm cells suspended in secretions of the accessory glands.&#10;A) Progesterone&#10;B) Inguinal fluid&#10;C) Testosterone&#10;D) Semen

Accepted Answer

Semen is the thick, whitish fluid that is composed of sperm cells and secretions from the accessory glands such as the seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and bulbourethral glands. It is ejaculated from the penis during sexual intercourse. Progesterone and testosterone are hormones produced by the female and male reproductive system, respectively. Inguinal fluid is not a commonly used term in relation to human reproduction.

Question 4

The passageways connecting the scrotal and abdominal cavities are the _______.&#10;A) ejaculatory ducts&#10;B) vas deferens&#10;C) genital canals&#10;D) inguinal canals

Accepted Answer

The inguinal canals connect the scrotal and abdominal cavities. The ejaculatory ducts and vas deferens are part of the male reproductive system, but they do not connect the scrotal and abdominal cavities. "Genital canals" is not a commonly used term.

Question 5

The _______ stimulates production of an ovum each month and prepares the uterus for pregnancy.&#10;A) corpus luteum&#10;B) interaction of progesterone and testosterone&#10;C) menstrual cycle&#10;D) LH concentration

Accepted Answer

The menstrual cycle is responsible for stimulating the production of an ovum (egg) each month and preparing the uterus for the possibility of pregnancy. This cycle involves hormonal changes that trigger ovulation and prepare the uterine lining for implantation.

Question 6

The paired ______ are the female gonads.&#10;A) ovaries&#10;B) cervixes&#10;C) uterine tubes&#10;D) follicles

Accepted Answer

The ovaries are the paired female gonads that produce and release eggs, as well as hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. The cervix is a part of the reproductive system but is not a gonad. The uterine tubes, also known as fallopian tubes, transport eggs from the ovaries to the uterus but are not themselves gonads. Follicles are structures within the ovaries that contain developing egg cells, but they are not the gonads themselves.

Question 7

The _______ is a very short duct passing through the prostate gland and then opening into the urethra.&#10;A) vas deferens&#10;B) spermatic cord&#10;C) ejaculatory duct&#10;D) testes

Accepted Answer

The ejaculatory duct is a very short duct passing through the prostate gland and then opening into the urethra. The vas deferens and spermatic cord are part of the male reproductive system but are not associated with the prostate gland or urethra. The testes are the male sex organs responsible for producing sperm, but they are not related to the ejaculatory duct.

Question 8

_______ is responsible for the development of primary and secondary male sex characteristics.&#10;A) Testosterone&#10;B) Estrogen&#10;C) Inhibin&#10;D) Prolactin

Accepted Answer

Testosterone is the male sex hormone responsible for the development of primary and secondary male sex characteristics such as the growth of facial and body hair, deepening of the voice, and the development of the male reproductive system. Estrogen is the female sex hormone responsible for the development of female sex characteristics, while inhibin regulates the production of testosterone. Prolactin is responsible for the production of breast milk in females.

Question 9

Cancer of the _______ has been linked to infection with human papillomavirus.&#10;A) vagina&#10;B) cervix&#10;C) uterus&#10;D) ovaries

Accepted Answer

Cancer of the cervix has been linked to infection with human papillomavirus. The other options (vagina, uterus, ovaries) may also develop cancer, but HPV is not commonly linked to them.

Question 10

A major difference between oogenesis and spermatogenesis is that _______.&#10;A) oogenesis takes place continuously; spermatogenesis occurs on a monthly cycle&#10;B) oogenesis results in one ovum; spermatogenesis gives rise to four mature sperm&#10;C) FSH stimulates follicle production; FSH inhibits sperm production&#10;D) luteinizing hormone (LH) is important in ova production; LH is not involved in sperm production

Accepted Answer

The major difference between oogenesis and spermatogenesis is that oogenesis results in the formation of one large ovum with three nonfunctional polar bodies, while spermatogenesis results in the formation of four mature and functional sperm. The other options are incorrect as oogenesis does not occur continuously, FSH stimulates follicle production in females and sperm production in males, and LH is important in both ova and sperm production.
