The correct sequence of spermatogenetic stages leading to the formation of sperms in a mature human testis isA. spermatogonia `rarr` spermatocyte `rarr` spermatid `rarr` spermsB. spermatid `rarr` spermatocyte `rarr` spermatogonia `rarr` spermsC. spermatogonia `rarr` spermatid `rarr` spermatocyte `rarr` spermsD. spermatocyte `rarr` spematogonia `rarr` spermatid rarr sperms.

Answer» Correct Answer - A
In human males, the primordial germ cells divide mitotically and produce spermatogonia. Some of the spermatogonia grow into large primary spermatocytes. Each perimary spermatocyte undergoes first maturation division which is a redutional (meiotic) one. Thus, the primary spermatocyte divides into two haploid daughter cells called secondary spermatocytes. Each secondary spermatocyte now undergoes second maturation division which is a mitotic one. Thus, each secondary spermatocyte gives rise to two spermatids that undergo transformation to form two sperms. Overall, two secondary spermatocytes give rise to four sperms.

Answer» Correct Answer - A
FSH acts on the Sertoli cells and stimulate secretion of some factors which help in the process of spermatogenesis.

What is menstrual cycle ? Name the hormones that regulate menstrual cycle ?

Answer» The menstrual cycle is a series of cyclic physiologic changes that take place inside the female reproductive tract in primates. The whole cycle takes around 28 days to complete. The end of the cycle is accompanied by the breakdown of uterine endothelium, which gets released in the form of blood and mucous through the vagina. This is known as menses.
The follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), estrogen, and progesterone are the various hormones that regulate the menstrual cycle. The level of FSH and LH secreted from the anterior pituitary gland increases during the follicular phase. FSH secreted under the influence of RH (releasing hormone) from the hypothalamus stimulates the conversion of a primary follicle into a graafian follicle. The level of LH increases gradually leading to the growth of follicle and secretion of estrogen. Estrogen inhibits the secretion of FSH and stimulates the secretion of luteinizing hormone. It also causes the thickening of the uterine endometrium. The increased level of LH causes the rupturing of the graafian follicle and release the ovum into the fallopian tube. The ruptured graafian follicle changes to corpus luteum and starts secreting progesterone hormone during the luteal phase. Progesterone hormone helps in the maintenance and preparation of endometrium for the implantation of the embryo. High levels of progesterone hormone in the blood decrease the secretion of LH and FSH, therefore inhibiting further ovulation.
50.

Name the functions of the following. (a) Corpus luteum (b) Endometrium (c) Acrosome (d) Sperm tail (e) Fimbriae

Answer» (a) Corpus luteum − Corpus luteum is formed from the ruptured Grafiaan follicle. It secretes progesterone hormone during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle. A high level of progesterone inhibits the secretions of FSH and LH, thereby preventing ovulation. It also allows the endometrium of the uterus to proliferate and to prepare itself for implantation.
(b) Endometrium − It is the innermost lining of the uterus. It is rich in glands and undergoes cyclic changes during various phases of the menstrual cycle to prepare itself for the implantation of the embryo.
(c) Acrosome − It is a cap-like structure present in the anterior part of the head of the sperm. It contains hyaluronidase enzyme, which hydrolyses the outer membrane of the egg, thereby helping the sperm to penetrate the egg at the time of fertilization.
(d) Sperm tail − It is the longest region of the sperm that facilitates the movement of the sperm inside the female reproductive tract.
(e) Fimbriae − They are finger-like projections at the ovarian end of the fallopian tube. They help in the collection of the ovum (after ovulation), which is facilitated by the beating of the cilia.
