Introduction: The reproductive system is a set of organs and parts of both male and female. These systems play a crucial role in the process of fertilization and development of offspring.
Answer to Problem 1CA
Correct answer: d. all of the above.
Explanation of Solution
Reason for the correct answer:
The general functions of the male and female reproductive systems are the synthesis of sex cells and hormones, nurturing of the sex cells or gametes, and transportation of the sex cells to the site of fertilization.
Option d. is given as “all of the above”.
Hence, the correct answer is option d.
Reasons for the incorrect answers:
Option a. is given as “producing sex cells”.
The production of sex cells is not alone the general function of the male and female reproductive systems. It also includes sex cell transportation to the site of fertilization and hormone secretion. Therefore, option a. is incorrect.
Option b. is given as “transporting sex cells to sites of fertilization”.
The transportation of sex cells to the sites of fertilization is not alone the function of the female and male reproductive systems. It also includes sex cell production and hormone secretion. Therefore, option b. is incorrect.
Option c. is given as “secreting hormones”.
Hormone secretion is not alone the general function of the male and female reproductive systems. It also includes the production of sex cells and the transportation of sex cells to the sites of fertilization. Therefore, option c. is incorrect.
Hence, options a., b., and c. are incorrect.
Thus, the general functions of the male and female reproductive system include all of the provided options.

The article could be about the pathogen itself, the disease process related to the pathogen, the immune response to the pathogen, vaccines or treatments that affect the pathogen, or other biology-related study about the pathogen. I recommend that you choose a pathogen that is currently interesting to researchers, so that you will be able to find plenty of articles about it. Avoid choosing a historical disease that no longer circulates. List 3 possible pathogens or diseases that you might want to do for your group project.arrow_forwardnot use ai pleasearrow_forward
