25
Located near the base of tubule, large, lightly-stained with a tringular nuclei
Stertoli cell
26
Stringy appearance due to chromosomes lining up
primary spermatocytes
27
Primary male hormone
testosterone
28
The primary male hormone are produced by these cells
Leydig cells
29
The stage of spermatogenesis that exists inside the blood-testis barrier
Type B spermatogonia
30
Refers to the transformation of spermatids into spermatozoa
Spermiogenesis
31
Prior to spermiogenesis, the spermatids are:
rounded and large due to cytoplasmic structures that are still intact
32
Final product of spermiogenesis is a
Non-motile mature spermatozoon (ST), Motile mature spermatozoon (Epididymis)
33
The spermatozoa becomes motile once they enter the
Epididymis
34
Efferent ductules characteristic
saw-tooth epithelium and "alternating groups" border
35
Epididymis duct characteristics
Pseudostratified columnar epithelium and stereocilia
36
For how many days can the spermatozoa survive once it enter the vagina
4 days
37
Vas deferens epithelium
Pseudostratified columnar epithelium
38
An accessory gland with irregular lumen and highly folded mucosa
seminal vesicle
39
These are present in the mucosa of the seminal vesicle
columnar epithelium, cuboidal epithelium and thin lamina propria
40
Responsible for the secretion of seminal fluid
seminal vesicle, prostate and bulbourethral gland
41
True or False: Young males have high androgen levels
True
42
Sperm's main nutrient source
fructose
43
Serum maker for prostate cancer
PSA
44
Serum maker for breast cancer
CA 15-3
45
Serum maker for ovarian cancer
CA 12-5
46
Serum maker for pancreatic cancer
CA 19-9
47
Largest male accessory gland,simple cuboidal epithelium and simple columnar epithelium. What is this?
the prostate gland
48
Liquifies semen
fibrinolysin
49
The epithelium in a prostatic urethra
urothelium
50
The dense fibroelastic tissue surrounding C. cavernosa, C. spongisum and Urethra
T. albuginea
51
True or False: Circular structures in the secretory alveoli are the distinguishing feature of the prostate stained with h&e
True
52
True or False: Urethra- Almond shaped structure stained with h&e
False (it should be ovary)
53
True or False: Helicine arteries are extended with flaccid penis and coiled with erect penis
False
54
True or False: Primordian follicle consist of a primary oocyte with a single squamous layer of follicular cells & basal lamina
True
55
True or False: Unilaminar primary follicles has a primary oocyte with single layer of cuboidal follicular cells
True
56
True or False: We can find bundles of collagen fiber in Theca externa
True
57
True or False: The oviduct does not play a role in transportation of oocyte from ovary to uterus
False
58
True or False: Spermatozoa undergoes capacitation when it enters the vagina
True
59
True or False: The ciliated low cells in the oviduct secrete sperm capacitation factors
False
60
True or False: In a proliferative uterus, the endometrium thickens due to estrogen
True
61
True or False: In a proliferative uterus, the endometrium within S. basale are short, irregular glands
False
62
True or False: S. functionale is considered the longest in secretory phase menstruation, which is regulated by progesterone
True
63
True or False: In the vagina, glycogen metabolizes citric acid
False (it should be lactic acid)
