  • 2. 

    Sperm is the sex cell that is produced by the testes and that is needed to fertilize an egg.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Sperm is indeed the sex cell produced by the testes and is required for fertilizing an egg. This is a biological fact, as sperm carries the genetic material necessary for reproduction and plays a crucial role in sexual reproduction.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    The egg is the sex cell that is produced by the ovaries and that can be fertilized by the sperm.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The given statement is true. The egg, also known as the ovum, is the female sex cell produced by the ovaries. It is released during ovulation and can be fertilized by a sperm cell to form a zygote, which eventually develops into an embryo. This process is essential for sexual reproduction in many organisms, including humans.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    The last stop for the sperm is the __________.

    • Testes

    • Tip of the penis

    • Vas deferens

    • Urethra

    Correct Answer
    A. Tip of the penis
    Explanation
    The last stop for the sperm is the tip of the penis because during ejaculation, sperm travels through the vas deferens and mixes with seminal fluid from the seminal vesicles and prostate gland. This mixture then passes through the urethra, which is the tube that runs through the penis. Finally, the sperm is released from the body through the opening at the tip of the penis.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    Testis is the male reproductive organ that removes urine from the body.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The given statement is incorrect. The testis is not involved in removing urine from the body. The testis is actually responsible for producing sperm and testosterone, which are involved in the male reproductive system. Urine is removed from the body by the urinary system, specifically the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    The penis is the sex cell that is produced by the testes and that is needed to fertilize an egg.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The given statement is incorrect. The penis is not a sex cell. It is an external reproductive organ in males that is involved in sexual intercourse. Sperm cells, which are produced by the testes, are the actual sex cells responsible for fertilizing an egg.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    Which of the following is NOT listed as a common problem among males?

    • Jock itch

    • Undescended testes

    • Prostatitis

    • Ovarian cysts

    Correct Answer
    A. Ovarian cysts
    Explanation
    Ovarian cysts are not listed as a common problem among males because they specifically occur in the ovaries, which are part of the female reproductive system. Jock itch is a fungal infection that affects the groin area and is more common in males. Undescended testes refers to the condition where one or both testes fail to descend into the scrotum, which is a common issue in males. Prostatitis is the inflammation of the prostate gland, which is exclusive to males. Therefore, ovarian cysts are the only option that does not pertain to common problems among males.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    Which one of the following is NOT a symptom of prostate cancer?

    • Difficulty urinating or defecating

    • Burning during urination

    • Vomiting

    • Blood in urine

    Correct Answer
    A. Vomiting
    Explanation
    Vomiting is not a symptom of prostate cancer. Prostate cancer primarily affects the prostate gland, which is responsible for producing semen. Symptoms of prostate cancer usually include difficulty urinating or defecating, burning during urination, and blood in urine. Vomiting is not typically associated with prostate cancer and may be indicative of other conditions or illnesses.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    The second stop for the sperm is the ___________.

    • Testes

    • Urethra

    • Tip of the penis

    • Epididymis

    Correct Answer
    A. Epididymis
    Explanation
    The correct answer is epididymis. The epididymis is a coiled tube located on the back of each testicle where sperm matures and are stored. After leaving the testes, sperm travel to the epididymis where they gain the ability to swim and become capable of fertilization. From the epididymis, sperm continue their journey through the vas deferens and eventually reach the urethra before being ejaculated from the tip of the penis.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    The third stop for the sperm is the __________.

    • Urethra

    • Epididymis

    • Testes

    • Vas deferens

    Correct Answer
    A. Vas deferens
    Explanation
    The vas deferens is the correct answer because it is the third stop for the sperm. After leaving the testes, the sperm travels through the epididymis where it matures and is stored. From there, it enters the vas deferens, a tube that carries the sperm from the epididymis to the urethra.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    The fourth stop for the sperm is in the ________.

    • Vas deferens

    • Testes

    • Tip of the penis

    • Urethra

    Correct Answer
    A. Urethra
    Explanation
    The urethra is the correct answer because it is the final stop for sperm during ejaculation. After the sperm is produced in the testes and travels through the vas deferens, it passes through the urethra to exit the body through the tip of the penis.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    Semen is the male reproductive organ that makes sperm and testosterone.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Semen is not a male reproductive organ, but rather a fluid that contains sperm and is ejaculated during sexual activity. The male reproductive organ that produces sperm and testosterone is the testes. Therefore, the statement is false.

    Rate this question:

  • 13. 

    The sperm starts in the ________.

    • Testes

    • Epididymis

    • Vas deferens

    • Urethra

    Correct Answer
    A. Testes
    Explanation
    The sperm starts in the testes, which are the male reproductive organs responsible for producing sperm. The testes contain tiny coiled tubes called seminiferous tubules, where sperm cells are produced through a process called spermatogenesis. These immature sperm cells then travel to the epididymis, where they mature and are stored until ejaculation. From the epididymis, the sperm then pass through the vas deferens, a muscular tube that transports sperm from the testes to the urethra. Finally, during ejaculation, the sperm are released from the urethra to fertilize an egg if present.

    Rate this question:

  • 14. 

    Which one of the following is NOT a form of treatment for testicular cancer?

    • Physical therapy

    • Radiation

    • Surgery

    • Chemotherapy

    Correct Answer
    A. Physical therapy
    Explanation
    Physical therapy is not a form of treatment for testicular cancer because it primarily involves the use of exercises, stretches, and other techniques to improve mobility, manage pain, and restore function in patients with physical impairments or injuries. Testicular cancer, on the other hand, is typically treated with radiation, surgery, and chemotherapy, which target and eliminate cancer cells in the body. Therefore, physical therapy is not a suitable treatment option for testicular cancer.

    Rate this question:

  • 15. 

    Which one of the following is NOT one of the "Six Ways to Keep Healthy"?

    • Wear appropriate gear when playing sports.

    • Avoid wearing tight clothing.

    • Only play non-contact sports.

    • Perform a monthly testicular self-exam.

    Correct Answer
    A. Only play non-contact sports.
    Explanation
    The given answer, "Only play non-contact sports," is not one of the "Six Ways to Keep Healthy" because it limits physical activity to non-contact sports only. The other options in the list, such as wearing appropriate gear when playing sports, avoiding wearing tight clothing, and performing a monthly testicular self-exam, all promote overall health and well-being. However, the suggestion of only playing non-contact sports ignores the benefits of engaging in a variety of physical activities, including contact sports, which can help improve cardiovascular health, muscle strength, and coordination.
