- Figure 43.8 Which of the following statements about the male reproductive system is false? The vas deferens carries sperm from the testes to the penis. Sperm mature in seminiferous tubules in the testes. Both the prostate and the bulbourethral glands produce components of the semen. The prostate gland is located in the testes.arrow_forwardFigure 43.15 Which of the following statements about hormone regulation of the female reproductive cycle is false? LH and FSH are produced in the pituitary, and estradiol and progesterone are produced in the ovaries. Estradiol and progesterone secreted from the corpus luteum cause the endometrium to thicken. Both progesterone and estradiol are produced by the follicles. Secretion of GnRH by the hypothalamus is inhibited by low levels of estradiol but stimulated by high levels of estradiol.arrow_forwardFigure 43.17 Which of the following statements about the menstrual cycle is false? Progesterone levels rise during the luteal phase of the ovarian cycle and the secretory phase of the uterine cycle. Menstruation occurs just after LH and FSH levels peak. Menstruation occurs after progesterone levels drop. Estrogen levels rise before ovulation, while progesterone levels rise after.arrow_forward
- Color the following parts: Spermatic Cord- Gray Fibrous tissue-Brown Seminiferous tubules-Yellow Rete testis-blue Efferent ductules-green Epididymis Orange Urethra-purplearrow_forwardWhich of the following processes takes place simultaneously during the menstrual cycle? Early follicular development and uterine lining High LH levels and ovulation Maximum LH release and menstruation (bleeding) Reconstruction of the corpus luteum and increased progesterone release from the ovaries Ovulation and menstruationarrow_forwardTRUE OR FALSE Sympathetic stimulation of the arteries within the penis causes engorgement of the erectile tissue as arterial flow increases and venous drainage decreases. Mammary glands are modified sudoriferous glands. Prolactin causes the breasts to enlarge and the mammary glands to mature during puberty. Secretions from the vestibular glands moisten and lubricate the vaginal orifice during sexual arousal. 20. The secretory phase of menstruation is from the time of ovulation until the start of the menstrual phase.arrow_forward
- Which of the following is LEAST LIKELY a function of the male reproductive system? Production of male sex hormones Nurturing the development of and providing nourishment for the new individual Sustaining and transfer of the sperm cells to the female Production of male sex cells, or sperm cells, in the testesarrow_forwardWhich of the following causes the bleeding (menstruation) during the menstrual cycle? Reduced release of oxytocin which causes the uterine muscles to relax Increased release of estrogen (estradiol) from the ovaries that simulates the uterine muscles to contract Reduced release of progesterone from the ovaries Increased release of progesterone leading to blood clotsarrow_forwardThe two principal ions involved in the generation of the action potential in the nerves are : * Sodium and potassium O None of the above O Sodium and Calcium Calcium and potassium The seminiferous tubules produce: * none of the above sperms estrogen progesteronarrow_forward
- What does the graph show about estrogen and progesterone before and after ovulation? Please choose from one choice below. Before ovulation: Progesterone level is higher than estrogen; After ovulation: Estrogen level is higher than progesterone Before ovulation: Estrogen level is lower than progesterone; After ovulation: Progesterone level is higher than estrogen Before ovulation: Estrogen level is higher than progesterone; After ovulation: Progesterone level is higher than estrogen Before ovulation: Progesterone level is higher than estrogen; After ovulation: Estrogen level is lower than progesteronearrow_forwardWhich of the following is an example of how sperm are equipped to survive outside of the male body? O The acrosomal enzyme in the head of the sperm protect the sperm from the female immune lysosomes. O Semen is alkaline which neutralizes the acidity of the vagina The bulbourethral gland produces fructose to nourish sperm O They do not have mitochondria, so they are not dependent upon aerobic respiration.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is/are NOT true with regards the mammary gland? Lactiferous ducts are found all around the nipple. All the choices None of the choices Mammary glands are modified sudoriferous glands. It is responsible for milk production. Which of the following is NOT a mechanism for regulation of hormonal secretion in the female reproductive system? None of the choices Progesterone decreases secretion of GnRH and LH. All the choices Estrogen release Decreases secretion GnRH, FSH & LH. Inhibin results in decreased secretion of FSH and LH. Which of the following is the GREATEST in terms of number? Number of sperm produced from one spermatid Number of chromosomes in a spermatid Number of sperm produced from a single spermatogonium Length in inches…arrow_forward
