- QUESTION 6 Although observations and experimental results implicate nAG in salamander limb regeneration, which experiment should be done, in the regenerating limb, to provide a more definitive test of whether nAG functions in limb regeneration? Use transgenesis to express nAG protein in the blastema Do in situ hybridization to know where the gene is expressed Block the activity of the prod-1 signaling pathway with a small molecule (drug) O Use Cre/Lox technology to knock out the function of nAG gene in the limbarrow_forwardCompared to the “large number” strategy of the male reproductive system, describe the overall strategy of the female reproductive system. What is the ovarian cycle? What is the menstrual cycle?arrow_forwardFigure 43.15 Which of the following statements about hormone regulation of the female reproductive cycle is false? LH and FSH are produced in the pituitary, and estradiol and progesterone are produced in the ovaries. Estradiol and progesterone secreted from the corpus luteum cause the endometrium to thicken. Both progesterone and estradiol are produced by the follicles. Secretion of GnRH by the hypothalamus is inhibited by low levels of estradiol but stimulated by high levels of estradiol.arrow_forward
- All sexually-reproducing animals must have certain basic anatomical structures in order to reproduce sexually. Choose an animal, identify its sex (e.g. "female nematode") and answer the questions below: Briefly describe the organs your chosen animal has that fit the relevant categories • Give a brief description (three to four words) of the function of each listed organ.arrow_forwardUnderstanding the causes of infertility can be valuablein developing new birth control methods. Cite a type ofcontraceptive based on each of the following causes of infertility:(a) failure to ovulate due to a hormonal imbalance;(b) a large fibroid tumor that disturbs the uterine lining;(c) endometrial tissue blocking uterine tubes;(d) low sperm count (too few sperm per ejaculate).arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements about the Female Reproductive System is TRUE? Select one: A) Follicles are located in the ovarian cortex, which has a rich supply of blood vessels and nerve fibres. B) The female gonads secrete progesterone, estrogen, and oxytocin. C) Connective tissue makes up the walls of the ovaries, uterus, and vagi na – whereas epithelial tissue lines the inner sides of the uterus, Fallopian tubes, and vagina. D) Microbial growth is deterred by the non-acidic environment of the vagi na. E) Each ovary is held in place within the abdominopelvic cavity by three ligaments – the broad, suspensory, and uterine ligaments.arrow_forward
- What does the graph show about estrogen and progesterone before and after ovulation? Please choose from one choice below. Before ovulation: Progesterone level is higher than estrogen; After ovulation: Estrogen level is higher than progesterone Before ovulation: Estrogen level is lower than progesterone; After ovulation: Progesterone level is higher than estrogen Before ovulation: Estrogen level is higher than progesterone; After ovulation: Progesterone level is higher than estrogen Before ovulation: Progesterone level is higher than estrogen; After ovulation: Estrogen level is lower than progesteronearrow_forwardWhat is the function of each part of the diagram?Male Reproductive System: What two phases of a person's life do testosterone determine "male" development? Consider both gonadal and brain development, as outlined in the slides, as well as secondary sex characteristics. What does this imply about gender identity later in life? Female Reproductive System:Label this diagram. What is the function of each part of the diagram? Explain IN DETAIL how the following figure describes one month in a woman's life between puberty and menopause. What is happening day by day? What happens at puberty to get it started and what happens at menopause to end it?arrow_forwardGross Anatomy of the Human Male and Female Reproductive System a) Assume that a couple has just consummated the sex act and that the sperm have been deposited in the vagina. Trace the pathway of the sperm through the female reproductive tract. b) Define ovulation. c)The testis is divided into a number of lobes by connective tissue. Each of these lobes contains one to four_______ which converge to empty sperm into another set of tubules called the_______arrow_forward
- After learning about the reproductive systems, how would advise a couple with following concern: "If we do not want a baby for next two years, how can we calculate the safe sex period?" She shares that her cycle is regular but not standard 28 days long cycle (so the standard explanation form different sources won't work unless you think critically)! At what time of the female cycle is she most likely to prevent fertilization of her ovulated egg? Consider the fact that her cycle is not 28 days but longer or shorter (you pick). Do males have any time (in their cycle- if any) when their gametes would not be able to fertilize the egg? In other words when can intercourse lead to least chance of pregnancy? Feel free to check with your older friends, doctors, nurses, or anyone who you feel comfortable talking about this.arrow_forwardL23. Act. 4– Draw arrows on the diagrams below to trace the journey of sperm from the site of spermatogenesis in the testes to the point of fertilization in the female reproductive tract. List the organs and structures that the sperm travels through below the diagrams. List the organs the sperm travels through from the testes until it leaves the male reproductive tract.arrow_forwardWhat is the primary role of FSH in males? Develop and maintain secondary sex characteristics Initiate sperm production in the testes Stimulate the interstitial cells to produce testosterone Stimulate the nurse cells to produce inhibin Influence sexual behaviors and sex drivearrow_forward
