Correct answer: Sperm duct- A. Pluripotent stem cells
- B. Blood stem cells
- C. Cord blood stem cells
- D. Both Options A and B are correct
Explanation: The correct answer is cord blood stem cells. The umbilical cord contains blood stem cells, specifically referred to as cord blood stem…
Correct answer: Cord blood stem cells15463. The follicle celIs, after release of the egg, are modified to form a special structure called:
- A. Endometrium
- B. Perimetrium
- C. Corpus luteum
- D. None of these options are correct
Explanation: After the release of the egg (ovulation) from the ovarian follicle, the remaining structure transforms into a specialized endocrine organ…
Correct answer: Corpus luteum- A. After about 7 days of fertilization
- B. After about two months of fertilization
- C. After about three weeks of fertilization
- D. After about 30 days of fertilization
Explanation: Once the embryo reaches the blastocyst stage, approximately five to six days after fertilization, it hatches out of its zona pellucida and…
Correct answer: After about 7 days of fertilization- A. Gestation
- B. Fertilization
- C. Cleavage
- D. Implantation
Explanation: The order of events in pregnancy is as follows: Fertilization → Cleavage → Implantation Fertilization means the fusion of an egg and a…
Correct answer: Implantation- A. 7th
- B. 4th
- C. 5th
- D. 3rd
Explanation: At three months of gestation, the developing human organism is typically referred to as a fetus rather than an embryo.

- A. 7 months
- B. 5 months
- C. 12 months
- D. 10 months
Explanation: A full-term pregnancy typically lasts around 40 weeks, or about 9 months.
Correct answer: 10 months- A. Graafian follicle
- B. None of these
- C. Adrenal cortex
- D. Adrenal medulla
Explanation: In females, testosterone is primarily produced by the ovaries and the adrenal cortex.
Correct answer: Adrenal cortex- A. Embryo
- B. Fetus
- C. Zygote
- D. Infant
Explanation: At three months of gestation, the developing human organism is typically referred to as a fetus rather than an embryo.
Correct answer: Fetus- A. Cytokinin

Explanation: In spermatogenesis, each meiotic division gives rise to four functional gametes.
Correct answer: 4- A. Ovary
- B. Uterus
- C. Cervix
- D. Fallopian tube
Explanation: The secondary oocyte completes its maturation in the fallopian tube. After ovulation, the secondary oocyte is released from the ovary and…
Correct answer: Fallopian tube- A. Uterine wall is prepared for implantation of embryo
- B. Menstrual flow
- C. Levels of estrogen fall
- D. Ovulation
Explanation: The time duration of days 16-28 is known as the luteal phase. During this time, the uterine wall is prepared for the implantation of the…
Correct answer: Uterine wall is prepared for implantation of embryo- A. May be haploid or diploid
- B. Triploid
- C. Haploid
- D. Diploid
Explanation: The ovum (egg cell) formed after fertilization is diploid. Fertilization is the process by which a sperm cell, which is haploid, combines…

- B. Implantation
- C. Fertilization
- D. None of these
Explanation: The oviduct, also known as the fallopian tube, is specialized for the transport of eggs (or ova) from the ovary to the uterus.
