Question 1

Which of the following is linked with many cases of cervical cancer?

Accepted Answer

Human papillomavirus (HPV) is known to be the primary cause of cervical cancer, with certain high-risk strains being responsible for the majority of cases.

Question 2

A female patient complains of a greenish ^-white discharge from her vagina that has a strong odor. She also experiences itching and burning of her genitals. Determine the sexually transmitted infection (STI) she has.

Accepted Answer

The symptoms described, including greenish-white discharge with a strong odor, itching, and burning, are characteristic of trichomoniasis, a common sexually transmitted infection caused by the parasite Trichomonas vaginalis.

Question 3

What type of birth control may prevent pregnancy by manipulating the hormones and interfering with ovulation?

Accepted Answer

Hormonal methods of birth control, such as birth control pills, patches, injections, and implants, work by manipulating hormones to prevent ovulation and thereby prevent pregnancy.

Question 4

What is the cause of trichomoniasis?

Accepted Answer

Trichomoniasis is caused by a parasite called Trichomonas vaginalis.

Question 5

During an erection, blood from the testicular arteries fills the vascular spaces of the corpus spongiosum of the penis.

Accepted Answer

During an erection, blood from the cavernous arteries fills the vascular spaces of the corpus cavernosum of the penis, not the corpus spongiosum. The corpus spongiosum has a spongy texture but does not play a major role in erection.

Question 6

A female wants to take a hormonal contraceptive that contains progesterone only. What could be an option?

Accepted Answer

Depo-Provera is a contraceptive injection that contains only the hormone progesterone, making it a suitable option for those seeking a progesterone-only contraceptive.

Question 7

Spermiogenesis is the process of sperm cell development. It includes all phases of meiosis and spermatogenesis^,the cytoplasmic changes required to form a mature sperm cell.

Accepted Answer

Spermiogenesis is the final stage of spermatogenesis, focusing on the maturation of spermatids into spermatozoa, but it does not include meiosis.

Question 8

A cell with 12 pairs of homologous chromosomes is said to be diploid, 2n.

Accepted Answer

A cell with 12 pairs of homologous chromosomes has a total of 24 chromosomes, which is considered diploid, denoted as 2n.

Question 9

During cold temperatures, the testes are pulled closer to the pelvic floor and the warmth of the body wall, and the scrotum becomes shorter and heavily wrinkled.

Accepted Answer

This is true. The contraction of the dartos muscle in response to cold temperatures causes the scrotum to become shorter and heavily wrinkled, which helps to conserve heat and keep the testes warmer.

Question 10

The prostate gland releases clotting proteins into ejaculated semen which cause coagulation and temporarily prevents the sperm from leaking back out of the female reproductive tract.

Accepted Answer

The prostate gland secretes clotting proteins that cause semen to coagulate, helping to keep it in the female reproductive tract temporarily.

Question 11

During the luteal phase of the uterine (menstrual) cycle, the corpus luteum secretes progesterone and some estrogen.

Accepted Answer

The answer of During the luteal phase of the uterine...

Question 12

Testosterone is made by the myoid cells of the male testes.

Accepted Answer

Testosterone is primarily produced by the Leydig cells in the testes, not the myoid cells. Myoid cells are involved in the structural support of the testicular tissue.

Question 13

The round ligaments connect each ovary to the uterus and receive an oocyte during ovulation.

Accepted Answer

The round ligaments actually connect the uterus to the labia majora and do not play a role in receiving an oocyte during ovulation. The fallopian tubes are responsible for receiving the oocyte.

Question 14

A male visiting a health clinic presents with a pink rash all over the body, a fever, joint pain, and complains of some hair loss. Determine the sexually transmitted infection (STI) this patient has contracted.

Accepted Answer

The symptoms described, including a pink rash all over the body, fever, joint pain, and hair loss, are indicative of secondary syphilis.

Question 15

If a couple want to have sexual intercourse, and they do not wish to use a behavior method as a form of birth control since they know it comes with high risk. What could be an alternative method?

Accepted Answer

Condoms are a barrier method of birth control that can help prevent pregnancy and protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

Question 16

The uterus is anchored by the broad ligament, suspensory ligament, and the round ligament.

Accepted Answer

The answer of The uterus is anchored by the broad...

Question 17

Which of the following is NOT a bacterial sexually transmitted infection (STI)?

Accepted Answer

Genital herpes is a viral STI, not a bacterial STI.

Question 18

From one original cell, four genetically unique daughter cells, each with 23 nonreplicated chromosomes, are produced at the conclusion of meiosis II of spermatogenesis.

Accepted Answer

This is correct as meiosis II in spermatogenesis results in four genetically unique daughter cells, each with 23 nonreplicated chromosomes (haploid).

Question 19

Which of the following may be prevented with a vaccine?

Accepted Answer

HPV is a sexually transmitted infection that can cause cervical cancer, vaginal cancer, vulvar cancer, and other health problems. A vaccine is available to prevent HPV infection.

Question 20

High levels of testosterone inhibit gonadotropin ^-releasing hormone (GnRH) by the hypothalamus.

Accepted Answer

High levels of testosterone provide negative feedback to the hypothalamus, inhibiting the release of GnRH, which in turn reduces the secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) from the pituitary gland.
