Reproductive physiology (human)
a) At the time of ovulation, the released ovum (egg) has completed both meiosis I and meiosis II.
b) Because the corpus luteum (CL) is rescued from atresia by hCG early in pregnancy, the CL continues to produce progesterone throughout the 9 months of a normal pregnancy.
c) Late in the follicular phase, estrogen participates in a positive feedback loop that leads to a surge in luteinizing hormone and ovulation.
d) Both (a) and (b) are correct and (c) is incorrect
e) Statements (a), (b) and (c) are all correct
Why is a second polar body expelled after fertilisation? a) To remove excess cytoplasm b) Because the oocyte must reactivate the incomplete meiosis before fusing with the sperm c) Before fusion with the sperm it must complete mitosis d) The fertilised oocyte is not a haploid cell until it expels the sperms mitochondria
Spermatogenesis and oogenesis both involve meiosis but differ in significant ways. One of those differences include what?
A) Cytokinesis is unequal in spermatogenesis
B) Production of sperm is continuous; in humans, and the number of future egg cells is set at birth
C) Oogenesis is an uninterrupted sequence, but there are long delays in spermatogenesis
D) All of the above
