Q111
Which of the following cells during gametogenesis is normally diploid?
A Spermatid
B Spermatogonia
C Secondary polar body
D Primary polar body
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

(d) Primary polar body is produced at the end of meiosis I and is still diploid.

Q112
Select the incorrect statement:
A FSH stimulates the sertoli cells which help in spermiogenesis
B LH triggers ovulation in ovary
C LH and FSH decrease gradually during the follicular phase
D LH triggers secretion of androgens from the Leydig cells
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

(c) LH and FSH both increase (not decrease) during the follicular phase.

Q113
Match the phases: Proliferative Phase, Secretory Phase, Menstruation
A iii ii i
B i iii ii
C iii i ii
D ii iii i
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

(d) Proliferative = follicular phase; Secretory = luteal phase; Menstruation = breakdown of endometrial lining.

Q114
The difference between spermiogenesis and spermiation is
A In spermiogenesis spermatids are formed, while in spermiation spermatozoa are formed.
B In spermiogenesis spermatozoa are formed, while in spermiation spermatids are formed.
C In spermiogenesis spermatozoa are formed, while in spermiation spermatozoa are released from sertoli cells.
D In spermiogenesis spermatozoa from sertoli cells are released, while in spermiation spermatozoa are formed.
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

(c) Spermiogenesis = spermatids → spermatozoa; Spermiation = release of sperms from sertoli cells.

Q115
Select the correct sequence of events.
A Gametogenesis-Gamete transfer-Syngamy-Zygote-Cell differentiation-Cell division-Organogenesis.
B Gametogenesis-Gamete transfer-Syngamy-Zygote-Cell division-Cell differentiation-Organogenesis.
C Gametogenesis-Gamete transfer-Syngamy-Zygote-Cell division-Organogenesis-Cell differentiation.
D Gametogenesis-Syngamy-Gamete transfer-Zygote-Cell division-Cell differentiation-Organogenesis.
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

(b) Correct sequence: Gametogenesis → Gamete transfer → Syngamy → Zygote → Cleavage → Cell differentiation → Organogenesis.

Q116
Which of the following hormone levels will cause release of ovum (ovulation) from the Graafian follicle?
A High concentration of Progesterone
B Low concentration of LH
C Low concentration of FSH
D High concentration of Estrogen
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

(d) LH surge at mid-cycle (day 14) induced by high estrogen triggers ovulation.

Q117
Which one of the following is the correct matching of three items and their grouping category?
A ilium, ischium, pubis - coxal bones of pelvic girdle
B actin, myosin, rhodopsin - muscle proteins
C cytosine, uracil, thiamine - pyrimidines
D malleus, incus, cochlea - ear ossicles
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

(a) Ilium, ischium and pubis are the three bones forming the innominate/coxal bones of pelvic girdle.

Q118
How many sperms are formed from a secondary spermatocyte?
A 4
B 1
C 2
D 8
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

(c) One secondary spermatocyte (meiosis II) → 2 spermatids → 2 sperms.

Q119
Acrosome reaction in sperm is triggered by
A capacitation
B release of lysozyme
C influx of Na+
D release of fertilizin
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

(d) Egg secretes fertilizin which triggers the acrosomal reaction in the sperm.

Q120
Grey crescent is the area
A at the point of entry of sperm into ovum
B just opposite to the site of entry of sperm into ovum
C at the animal pole
D at the vegetal pole
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

(b) Grey crescent forms on the surface opposite the sperm entry point.
