Question 1

Question
Which of the following is correctly matched
Answer
  • Leptotene... condensation of chromosomes
  • Diplotene... pairing of homologous chromosomes
  • Pachytene... crossing over/meiotic recombination
  • Lepto and Pachy
  • All of them

Question 2

Question
Primordial germ cells migrate into the developing gonad at seven weeks. The primitive sex cords formed by the PGCs is also known as an indifferent gonad.
Answer
  • both true
  • first true, second false
  • first false, second true
  • both false

Question 3

Question
First meiotic division is complete in females during puberty but before puberty in males. Oocytes arrest at zygotene at birth, spermatogonia arrest in mitosis.
Answer
  • Both true
  • First true, second false
  • First false, second true
  • Both false

Question 4

Question
Which of the following is the correct order of fertilization events?
Answer
  • Capacitation, recognition, egg activation, fusion of sperm, fusion of genetic materials
  • egg activation, capacitation, recognition, fusion of genetic materials, acrosome reaction
  • capacitation of sperm, recognition, acrosome reaction, egg activation, sperm fusion
  • capacitation, recognition, acrosome reaction, sperm fusion, egg activation
  • none of these choices

Question 5

Question
Morulas undergo flattening in a process called compaction. Compaction includes increased tight junctions, adhesions, and inner/outer polarity of cells.
Answer
  • Both true
  • first true, second false
  • first false, second true
  • both false

Question 6

Question
The inner cell mass of the embryo can give rise to all 3 primary germ layers due to pluripotency and self-renewal. GATA6 and NANOG segregates the hypoblast from the epiblast.
Answer
  • Both true
  • First true, second false
  • First false, second true
  • Both false

Question 7

Question
Meiosis II of the oocyte occurs after the sperm has fused with the egg membrane. Fertilization normally occurs in the ampullary of the fallopian tube.
Answer
  • Both true
  • First true, second false
  • First false, second true
  • Both false

Question 8

Question
What is the correct order of the process of spermatids becoming sperm?
Answer
  • condensation of the nucleus, loss of cytoplasm, acrosome formation, middle and tail formation
  • condensation of the nucleus, formation of middle piece and tail, acrosome formation, loss of cytoplasm
  • acrosome formation, condensation of the nucleus, loss of cytoplasm, formation of middle and tail
  • acrosome formation, middle and tail formation, condensation of nucleus, loss of cytoplasm
  • loss of cytoplasm, acrosome formation, middle and tail formation, condensation of nucleus

Question 9

Question
What is the developmental pathway for primordial germ cells
Answer
  • epiblast, yolk sac, genital ridge, gut tube, dorsal mesentery, gonad
  • yolk sac, genital ridge, epiblast, dorsal mesentery, gut tube, gonad
  • epiblast, genital ridge, yolk sac, gut tube, dorsal mesentery, gonad
  • yolk sac, epiblast, genital ridge, dorsal mesentery, gut tube, gonad
  • epiblast, yolk sac, genital ridge, dorsal mesentery, gut tube, gonad
