The shared terminal duct of the reproductive and urinary system in the human male is:
1. | Urethra | 2. | Ureter |
3. | Vas deferens | 4. | Vasa efferentia |
The main function of mammalian corpus luteum is to produce
1. estrogen only
2. progesterone
3. human chorionic gonadotropin
4. relaxin only
Select the correct option describing gonadotropin activity in a normal pregnant female
1. | High level of FSH and LH stimulates the thickening of endometrium |
2. | High level of FSH and LH facilitate implantation of the embryo |
3. | High level of HCG stimulates the synthesis of estrogen and progesterone |
4. | High level of HCG stimulates the thickening of endometrium |
Menstrual flow occurs due to lack of
1. progesterone
2. FSH
3. oxytocin
4. vasopressin
Which one of the following is not the function of the placenta?
1. | It facilitates the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the embryo |
2. | It secretes oestrogen |
3. | It facilitates the removal of carbon dioxide and waste material from the embryo |
4. | It secretes oxytocin during parturition |
Signals for parturition originate from
1. both placenta as well as fully developed foetus
2. oxytocin released from maternal pituitary
3. placenta only
4. fully developed foetus only
In a normal pregnant woman, total gonadotropin activity was assessed. The expected result was :
1. | High level of circulating FSH and LH in the uterus to stimulate implantation of the embryo |
2. | High level of circulating HCG to stimulate endometrial thickening |
3. | High levels of FSH and LH in the uterus to stimulate endometrial thickening |
4. | High level of circulating HCG to stimulate oestrogen and progesterone synthesis |
The Leydig cells as found in the human body are the secretory source of:
1. | progesterone | 2. | intestinal mucus |
3. | glucagon | 4. | androgens |
If for some reason, the vasa efferentia in the human reproductive system get blocked, the gametes will not be transported from:
1. epididymis to vas deferens
2. ovary to uterus
3. vagina to uterus
4. testes to epididymis

2. D-Oviducal funnel, E-Uterus, F-Cervix
3. A-Perimetrium, B-Myometrium, C-Fallopian tube
4. B-Endometrium, C-Infundibulum, D-Fimbriae
