    Identify the organ shown below: - ProProfs

    Identify the organ shown below:

    • Ovary

    • Uterus

    • Testes

    • Fallopian tubes

    Correct Answer
    A. Fallopian tubes
    Explanation
    The organ shown in the image is the fallopian tubes. The fallopian tubes are a pair of tubes that connect the ovaries to the uterus in females. They play a crucial role in the reproductive system as they are responsible for transporting the egg from the ovary to the uterus. Sperm can also fertilize the egg in the fallopian tubes.

    Identify the organ shown below: - ProProfs

    Identify the organ shown below:

    • Penis

    • Testes

    • Seminal vesicles

    • Prostate gland

    Correct Answer
    A. Seminal vesicles
    Explanation
    The organ shown in the image is the seminal vesicles. The seminal vesicles are a pair of small glands located behind the bladder in males. They produce and store a significant portion of the fluid that makes up semen. The fluid secreted by the seminal vesicles contains fructose, proteins, and other substances that provide nourishment and support for sperm. This fluid is released during ejaculation and helps in the transportation and protection of sperm.

    A 17-year old girl is sexually active and has a new partner. He tells her he has been tested an is STI-free. She is not planning on geting pregnant. Which method of birth control makes the most sense for her?

    • Withdrawal

    • Tubal ligation

    • IUD

    • Condoms & hormonal birth control

    Correct Answer
    A. Condoms & hormonal birth control
    Explanation
    For a sexually active 17-year old girl who wants to prevent pregnancy, using condoms and hormonal birth control makes the most sense. Condoms provide protection against sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and are easily accessible. Hormonal birth control methods, such as the pill or the patch, are highly effective at preventing pregnancy when used correctly. Combining these two methods provides a dual protection against both pregnancy and STIs, making it a suitable choice for her. Tubal ligation is a permanent sterilization method and may not be appropriate for someone her age. Withdrawal method alone is not reliable in preventing pregnancy.

    Sperm are created in the ________.

    • Penis

    • Testes

    • Urethra

    • Seminal vesicles

    Correct Answer
    A. Testes
    Explanation
    Sperm are created in the testes. The testes are responsible for producing sperm through a process called spermatogenesis. This occurs in the seminiferous tubules within the testes. The testes also produce testosterone, which is the primary male sex hormone. The other options, such as the penis, urethra, and seminal vesicles, are not involved in the creation of sperm. The penis is the male reproductive organ, the urethra is the tube through which urine and semen pass, and the seminal vesicles produce a fluid that mixes with sperm to form semen.

    A couple come into your office because they want you to settle a dispute. They have been together for 3 months, and he just began showing symptoms of chlamydia. She says she has never had any of these symptoms before, but she has not been tested. She thinks he is cheating!! You say:

    • You're right, because you are not infected

    • Maybe not, because he looks like a nice enough guy

    • Maybe not, because many women don't show symptoms even when they are infected

    Correct Answer
    A. Maybe not, because many women don't show symptoms even when they are infected
    Explanation
    The correct answer suggests that the woman may not be showing symptoms even if she is infected with chlamydia. This is a plausible explanation because many women with chlamydia do not experience any symptoms. Therefore, it is possible that the man contracted the infection from a previous partner and transmitted it to the woman without her being aware of it. This supports the notion that the man may not be cheating and that the woman should consider getting tested for chlamydia.

  • 7. 

    Which is NOT an effective method of birth control?

    • Condoms

    • Withdrawal

    • IUD

    • Birth control pills

    Correct Answer
    A. Withdrawal
    Explanation
    Withdrawal is not an effective method of birth control because it relies on the man pulling out before ejaculation, which is not always successful in preventing pregnancy. Sperm can be present in pre-ejaculate, increasing the risk of pregnancy. Therefore, withdrawal is not a reliable method for preventing pregnancy and should not be solely relied upon as a form of birth control.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    Which method of birth control involves a permanent device inserted in the uterus that kills sperm cells? 

    • IUD

    • Condoms

    • Birth control pills

    • Diaphragm

    Correct Answer
    A. IUD
    Explanation
    An IUD (Intrauterine Device) is a small, T-shaped device that is inserted into the uterus to prevent pregnancy. It is a form of long-acting reversible contraception. One type of IUD, called a copper IUD, works by releasing copper ions into the uterus, which are toxic to sperm and eggs, thus killing sperm cells and preventing fertilization. This makes the IUD an effective method of birth control.

    When a woman has a tubal ligation (a procedure known as getting her "tubes tied"), WHY does this prevent pregnancy? - ProProfs

    When a woman has a tubal ligation (a procedure known as getting her "tubes tied"), WHY does this prevent pregnancy?

    • Because sperm cannot reach the egg to fertilize it

    • Because it destroys egg cells

    • Because it stops production of eggs

    • Because it forces menstruation and the release of the uterine lining

    Correct Answer
    A. Because sperm cannot reach the egg to fertilize it
    Explanation
    When a woman has a tubal ligation, it involves blocking or sealing the fallopian tubes, which are responsible for transporting the eggs from the ovaries to the uterus. By blocking the tubes, sperm is unable to reach the egg for fertilization, thus preventing pregnancy.

    A woman and her husband are trying to get pregnant. Which day of her mentsrual cycle  should they have sex in order so that they will have the BEST chances of conceiving a baby?

    • Day 2

    • Day 12

    • Day 22

    • Day 28

    Correct Answer
    A. Day 12
    Explanation
    During a woman's menstrual cycle, ovulation typically occurs around day 14. This is the time when the egg is released from the ovary and is available for fertilization. Sperm can survive in the female reproductive system for up to 5 days, so having sex on day 12 provides a good chance for the sperm to be present when the egg is released. Therefore, day 12 would be the best day for the couple to have sex in order to increase their chances of conceiving a baby.

    A 29-year old couple have 3 children, and decide that they do not want to have any more children. Which form of birth control makes the mose sense for them?

    • Condoms

    • Diaphragm

    • Vasectomy

    • Hormonal birth control

    Correct Answer
    A. Vasectomy
    Explanation
    A vasectomy is a permanent form of birth control for men that involves cutting or blocking the tubes that carry sperm. Since the couple has already decided that they do not want any more children, a vasectomy would be the most sensible option for them. It is a highly effective and permanent method of contraception that does not require the use of hormones or devices.

    If the organ shown here was hyperactive (meaning overactive), a man would probably have which problem? - ProProfs

    If the organ shown here was hyperactive (meaning overactive), a man would probably have which problem?

    • Too much preejaculate fluid

    • Low sperm count

    • Very sugary semen

    • Doesn't produce enough semen

    Correct Answer
    A. Too much preejaculate fluid
    Explanation
    If the organ shown here was hyperactive, it would likely result in too much preejaculate fluid. This is because hyperactivity of the organ can lead to an excessive production of preejaculate fluid, which is released before ejaculation. This can cause issues such as increased wetness or discomfort during sexual activity.

    The diagram below shows the EXTERNAL female genitals, also known as the:

    • Uterus

    • Vulva

    • Vagina

    • Ovaries

    Correct Answer
    A. Vulva
    Explanation
    The diagram provided depicts the external female genitals, which are commonly referred to as the vulva. The vulva includes various structures such as the labia majora, labia minora, clitoris, and vaginal opening. It is important to note that the uterus, vagina, and ovaries are internal reproductive organs and are not part of the external female genitalia.

    What happens during the follicular phase?

    • The uterine lining is shed through the vagina

    • The uterine lining breaks down

    • The egg matures into a follicle and is released through ovulation

    Correct Answer
    A. The egg matures into a follicle and is released through ovulation
    Explanation
    During the follicular phase, the egg matures into a follicle and is released through ovulation. This phase occurs in the menstrual cycle and is characterized by the growth and development of follicles in the ovaries. The follicles contain immature eggs, and as they mature, one dominant follicle is selected. This dominant follicle releases the mature egg during ovulation, which is then available for fertilization by sperm.

    Eggs are usually fertilized in the _______, and implant in the _____________.

    • Ovary; vagina

    • Ovary; fallopian tubes

    • Fallopian tubes; uterus

    • Vagina; uterus

    Correct Answer
    A. Fallopian tubes; uterus
    Explanation
    During the process of fertilization, eggs are usually fertilized in the fallopian tubes. After fertilization, the fertilized egg, or embryo, then implants itself in the uterus. The fallopian tubes serve as the pathway for the egg to travel from the ovary to the uterus, where it can implant and develop into a pregnancy. Therefore, the correct answer is fallopian tubes; uterus.

    Identify the organ shown below:

    • Ovary

    • Vagina

    • Uterus

    • Fallopian tubes

    Correct Answer
    A. Vagina
    Explanation
    The organ shown in the image is the vagina. The vagina is a muscular canal in the female reproductive system that connects the uterus to the external opening of the genitals. It serves as the birth canal during childbirth and also allows for the passage of menstrual blood and sperm.

    A man has a high sperm count in his semen, but the sperm do not swim very fast. This is called "low motility". This man probably has a problem with which organ?

    • Prostate

    • Seminal vesicles

    • Cowper's gland

    • Urethra

    Correct Answer
    A. Seminal vesicles
    Explanation
    The seminal vesicles are responsible for producing a significant portion of the fluid that makes up semen. This fluid provides nutrients and energy to sperm, as well as helps to transport them. Therefore, if a man has a high sperm count but low motility, it suggests that there may be an issue with the seminal vesicles, as they are not providing the necessary environment for the sperm to swim effectively.

    A patient has identified sores around his genitals and anus. He hopes they will go away, but after a week these sores have spread to his hands and feet. He has no other symptoms. This is most likely: '

    • HIV

    • Chlamydia

    • Syphilis

    • Herpes

    Correct Answer
    A. Syphilis
    Explanation
    The patient's symptoms of sores around the genitals and anus that spread to the hands and feet are consistent with syphilis. Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum. It often presents with painless sores called chancres in the early stages, which can spread to other parts of the body if left untreated. The absence of other symptoms and the progression of the sores indicate syphilis as the most likely cause.

    Which STI is unlikely to be transmitted through oral sex?

    • Chlamydia

    • HIV

    • HPV

    • Herpes

    Correct Answer
    A. HIV
    Explanation
    HIV is unlikely to be transmitted through oral sex because the virus is primarily transmitted through specific bodily fluids such as blood, semen, vaginal fluids, and breast milk. Although it is possible to transmit HIV through oral sex, the risk is significantly lower compared to other forms of sexual activity. However, it is still important to practice safe sex and use protection to reduce the risk of transmission.

    A young woman enters your emergency room complaining that it is painful which she urinates or has intercourse. She has also noticed some strange discharge and bleeding, even though she is not on her period. She most likely has:

    • Syphilis

    • Chlamydia

    • Herpes

    • HPV

    Correct Answer
    A. Chlamydia
    Explanation
    Based on the symptoms described, the young woman most likely has chlamydia. Chlamydia is a sexually transmitted infection that can cause pain during urination or intercourse, abnormal discharge, and bleeding. While other sexually transmitted infections like syphilis, herpes, and HPV can also cause similar symptoms, chlamydia is the most common bacterial infection among sexually active individuals. Therefore, chlamydia is the most likely explanation for her symptoms.
