### Requirements for Successful External Fertilization

All of the following are requirements for successful external fertilization except for one. Which one is not a requirement?

- A moist environment.
- Large, energy-rich gametes.
- Synchronization of gamete release.
- Lock and key recognition between gametes of the same species.

### Question 40

You dissect an animal and it has a long intestine and a very large cecum. What can you conclude about its diet?

- It most likely is an herbivore.
- It most likely is an granivore.
- It most likely is an omnivore.
- It most likely is a carnivore.

### Question 41

In females, when estrogen levels reach the threshold, what happens?

- It triggers the release of GnRH which causes FSH to be released and a new ovum begins to mature.
- It triggers a burst of LH which triggers ovulation.
- I acts as a positive feedback causing the pituitary to release progesterone which inhibits the production of a new ovum.
- It acts as a negative feedback on the hypothalamus and pituitary preventing the release of FSH and LH.
