The function of the Scrotum (Male Part)
- Sac that holds testicles, helps with temperature control
- Sac for epididymis
- Tube where semen travels through
- Sperm production
Correct Answer

A. Sac that holds testicles, helps with temperature control

Explanation

The scrotum is a sac that holds the testicles in males. One of its main functions is to help regulate the temperature of the testicles. The testicles need to be kept at a slightly lower temperature than the rest of the body for optimal sperm production. The scrotum accomplishes this by contracting or relaxing the muscles, which raises or lowers the testicles closer to or further from the body, respectively. This allows the testicles to stay at the correct temperature for sperm production.

Which male reproductive system secretes nourishing fluid which mixes with the sperm?
- Vas Deferens
- Urethra
- Cowper's Gland

Correct Answer

A. Seminal Vesicles

Explanation

The seminal vesicles are responsible for secreting a nourishing fluid that mixes with the sperm. This fluid provides nutrients and enzymes that help to nourish and protect the sperm as they travel through the reproductive system. It also helps to enhance the motility and viability of the sperm, increasing the chances of successful fertilization.

Ovulation is when...
- Once in awhile, two of the eggs from the ovaries is released
- Once a year, one of the eggs from the vagina is released
- Twice a month, one of the eggs from the vagina is released
- Once a month, one of the eggs from the ovaries ripens and is released
Correct Answer

A. Once a month, one of the eggs from the ovaries ripens and is released

Explanation

Ovulation is the process in which a mature egg is released from the ovaries and is ready to be fertilized. This typically happens once a month in women of reproductive age. The egg is released from one of the ovaries and travels through the fallopian tube, where it can be fertilized by sperm if intercourse occurs. If the egg is not fertilized, it will disintegrate and be shed along with the uterine lining during menstruation.

Rate this question:
8.

Where is there a chance that fertilization can occur?
- Fallopian tube
- Fallopian veins
- Urethra
- Endometrium
Correct Answer

A. Fallopian tube

Explanation

Fertilization can occur in the fallopian tube. This is because the fallopian tube is the site where the egg and sperm meet. After ovulation, the egg is released from the ovary and travels through the fallopian tube. If sperm are present in the fallopian tube at the same time, fertilization can occur. The fallopian tube provides an ideal environment for fertilization to take place, as it is lined with cilia that help move the egg and sperm towards each other. Once fertilization occurs, the resulting embryo will then travel to the uterus for implantation.

- Birth canal
- Endometrium/uterine lining
- Uterine canal
- Clitoris
Correct Answer

A. Endometrium/uterine lining

Explanation

After fertilization, the fertilized egg, or embryo, travels through the fallopian tubes to reach the uterus. Once in the uterus, the embryo will implant itself into the wall of the uterus, which is called the endometrium or uterine lining. This is where the embryo will develop and grow during pregnancy. The other options mentioned (birth canal, uterine canal, clitoris) are not correct as they do not accurately describe the location where the fertilized egg implants itself.

What system in the human body transports blood?
- Lymphatic
- Digestive
- Cardiovascular
- Respiratory
Correct Answer

A. Cardiovascular

Explanation

The cardiovascular system, also known as the circulatory system, is responsible for transporting blood throughout the human body. It consists of the heart, blood vessels, and blood. The heart pumps oxygenated blood to the body's tissues and organs through a network of arteries, while veins carry deoxygenated blood back to the heart. This system plays a crucial role in delivering oxygen, nutrients, hormones, and other essential substances to the body's cells, as well as removing waste products. Therefore, the cardiovascular system is the correct answer for the question.
