C25- reproduction

The process of selecting the follicles that will develop during a given cycle is influenced by gonadotropins.

During fertilization, a total of 46 chromosomes - 23 from the sperm and 23 from the ovum - are present.

Estrogen is the dominant hormone in the luteal phase of the ovarian cycle.

The corpus luteum is responsible for estrogen production during the first half of the ovarian cycle.

The corpus luteum of pregnancy will continue to sustain endocrine production throughout the entire pregnancy.

The process of selecting the follicles to develop during a given cycle occurs between the beginning of the second cycle and the end of the third cycle.

The majority of estradiol and estrone is produced in the ovaries.

The dominant oocyte is selected during the late luteal phase of the second cycle.

One follicle will be ovulated during the December cycle if multiple follicles enter the cycle during this month.

The second polar body is expelled during the first division of meiosis, after fertilization.

The testis is primarily responsible for producing eggs and secreting estrogen.

Spermatogenesis takes place within the highly coiled seminiferous tubules of the testis.

Testosterone has no impact on non-reproductive functions in the body.

Androgens have a catabolic effect on muscle tissue.

The effects of testosterone on the male reproductive system are absent during the prenatal phase.

The male pattern of hair growth is a secondary sexual characteristic influenced by testosterone.

Sertoli cells are primarily responsible for sperm production during spermatogenesis.

Excess testosterone can lead to increased aggression in individuals.

Sertoli cells primarily produce luteinizing hormone (LH) to regulate sperm production.

The seminal vesicles supply fructose and prostaglandins to nourish sperm and stimulate their motility.

Androgen-binding protein (ABP) helps to lower testosterone levels within the seminiferous tubules.

Alkaline fluid secreted by the prostate gland neutralizes the acidic environment of the vagina to enhance sperm survival.

Inhibin provides positive feedback in the regulation of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) secretion.

The reproductive system is essential for the survival of an individual.

The female reproductive system is specifically designed to perform reproduction independently.

The hypothalamus and anterior pituitary play no significant role in reproductive capability.

The male and female reproductive systems have the same roles in the reproductive process.

Growth and reproductive capability are strictly correlated during adolescence.

Sexual behavior is only influenced by biological factors.

After the onset of puberty, the production of growth hormone will continue to increase.

Gametogenesis refers to the production of both spermatozoa and eggs.

The male reproductive system is equipped to nourish offspring during pregnancy.

The primary reproductive organs are also known as gonads.

Testosterone is the most relevant hormone in females for the production of gametes.

Both sexual partners contribute equally to the genetic material in the reproductive process.

The secondary sexual characteristics do not involve reproduction directly but help distinguish males from females.

The epididymis and ductus deferens are part of the female reproductive tract.

Accessory sex glands are optional in their function within the reproductive system.

In males, spermatogenesis occurs in the testis, which are contained within the scrotum.

The primary function of the penis in the male reproductive system is to produce sperm.

Female accessory reproductive organs include the breasts.

Males in the animal world are often responsible for attracting females through the display of secondary sexual characteristics.

Estrogens can be produced in females without testosterone.
