    Where is the fimbriae located?

    • At the end of the fallopian tubes

    • At the end of the scrotum

    • At the end of the uterus

    • At the end of the vaginal opening

    Correct Answer
    A. At the end of the fallopian tubes
    Explanation
    The fimbriae are located at the end of the fallopian tubes. The fimbriae are finger-like projections that extend from the infundibulum, which is the funnel-shaped opening of the fallopian tube. They help to capture the released egg from the ovary and guide it into the fallopian tube for fertilization.

    Where does fertilization usually take place in females?

    • In the vagina

    • In the uterus

    • In the fallopian tubes

    • Everywhere

    Correct Answer
    A. In the fallopian tubes
    Explanation
    Fertilization usually takes place in the fallopian tubes. After ovulation, the egg is released from the ovary and travels through the fallopian tube towards the uterus. If sperm is present in the fallopian tube, it can fertilize the egg before it reaches the uterus. The fallopian tubes provide the ideal environment for fertilization to occur, with the help of cilia and muscular contractions that aid in the movement of the egg and sperm.

    • Haploid

    • Diploid

    • Triploid

    • None of these

    Correct Answer
    A. Haploid
    Explanation
    Male and female gametes are haploid because they contain half the number of chromosomes compared to the other cells in the organism. This is necessary for sexual reproduction, as when the gametes fuse during fertilization, the resulting zygote will have the correct number of chromosomes. Therefore, haploid gametes ensure that the offspring will have the correct number of chromosomes and maintain the species' genetic diversity.
