Which of the following are a features of the adluminal compartment, but NOT the basal compartment, of the seminiferous tubules? • Is accessible to the cells of immune system • Contains Sertoli cells • Contains spermatids • Contains spermatogonia • Contains testosterone-secreting cells
–+–
Which of the following statements concerning testis are true? • Special junctional complexes are developed between Sertoli cells • Seminiferous epithelium is composed only of developing spermatozoa • Seminiferous epithelium contains numerous capillaries • Leydig cells are situated in seminiferous epithelium • Interstitual tissue does not contain capillaries • Sertoli cells prevail in the epithelium of terminal portions of seminiferous tubules
+—-+
Which of the following structures are lined by transitional epithelium?
• ductuli efferentes • ductus epididymidis • ejaculatory duct • membranous urethra • penile urethra • prostatic urethra • rete testis • tubuli recti
prosthtic urethre
contains elastic fibers • stratum functionale of endometrium • stratum basale of endometrium • neither
neither
contains more fibroblasts and reticular fibers • stratum functionale of endometrium • stratum basale of endometrium • neither
basale!
represented by 10 to 20 canaliculi • tubuli recti • rete testis • ductili efferentes • ductus epididymidis • ductus deferens • ejaculatory duct • prostatic urethra • membranous urethra • pendulous urethra
ductili efferentes
Which of the following statements concerning deferent duct is (are) true? • its wall does not contain smooth muscle cells • outermost layer of its wall is adventitia covered by mesothelium • mucosa is composed of pseudostratified columnar epithelium and of lamina properia • epithelial columnar cells lining proximal portion of deferent duct are equipped with stereocilia
–++
changes little during menstruation cycle • stratum functionale of endometrium • stratum basale of endometrium • neither
neither! they both change.
Which of the following statements concerning ductuli efferentes are true? • Wall does contain smooth muscle cells • Some epithelial cells are equipped with kinocilia • Some epithelial cells are equipped with stereocilia • Some epithelial cells are equipped with microvilli
++-+
final product of spermiogenesis? final product of spermacytogenesis?
spermatozoa spermatids
Their ducts open into urethra • testes • seminal vesicles • prostate gland • bulbourethral glands • paraurethral glands
–+++ seminal vesicles empty into ejaculatory ducts and then prostatic gland and urethra
Which of the following statements concerning seminiferous epithelium are false? • Contains spermatids before puberty • Consists of Sertoli cells and spermatogenic cells • Basal compartment contains spermatogonia • Is surrounded by myoid cells
+–+
Which of the following are true of the corpora albucantia but not of atretic follicles? • may leave hormone-secreting interstitial cells after degeneration • can occur only after puberty • eventually may be removed by macrophages and replaced by stroma • are remnants of follicles that degenerate before ovulation • may contain degenerating oocytes • often enlarge during pregnancy • may contain degenerating granulosa cells floating in remnants the follicular liquor
-+—- because corpus ALBICANS et non pas corpus luteum
Which of the following statements concerning duct of epididymis are true? • Its wall does contain smooth muscle cells • Mucosa is composed of pseudostratified columnar epithelium and lamina propria • Some epithelial cells are equipped with kinocilia • Some epithelial cells are equipped with stereocilia • Some epithelial cells are equipped with numerous microvilli?
++-+-
Form blood-testis barrier • spermatogonia • primary spermatocytes • secondary spermatocytes • spermatids • spermatozoa • Sertoli cells • Leydig cells
sertoli
The blood that supplies the nutrients used to rebuiled the endometrium after menstruation is continued in which of the following? • coiled arteries in the stratum functionale • straight arteries in the stratum functionale • straight arteries in the stratum basale • menstrual fluid in the uterine lumen
+-+-
Which of the following are true of granulosa lutein cells? • are a minor cell type in the corpus luteum • derive from theca interna • contain abundant granular endoplasmic reticulum • are small and dark staining • secrete progesterone • are steroid-producing cells
—-++
can transform into collagenous scar • atretic follicles • corpora albicantia • neither
both even if temporary
Compound tuboalveolar glands • Testes • Seminal vesicles • Prostate gland • Bulbourethral glands • Paraurethral glands
—+-
Which of the following statements concerning seminal vesicles is (are) true?
• compound acinar glands • branched acinar glands • branched tubular glands • simple coiled tubular glands • smooth muscle cells are present in their walls
—++
Which of the following structures has (have) lining cells that exhibit apical stereocilia? • ductuli efferentes • ductus epididymidis • ejaculatory duct • membranous urethra • penile urethra • prostatic urethra • rete testis • tubuli recti • deferent duct
ductus def and ductus epididymis
Largest spermatogenic cell type • spermatogonia • primary spermatocytes • secondary spermatocytes • spermatids • spermatozoa • Sertoli cells • Leydig cells
primary spermatocytes
Which of the following structural changes accompanies follicle development? • reduction in size of the antrum • increase in size of the follicle • reduction in size of the ovum • reduction in thickness of the granulosa layer • reduction of thickness of the zona pellucida • replacement of theca externa by theca interna
-+-+(because granulosa cells give corona radiata)–
Which of the following are true of the uterine tube’s ampulla but not its isthmus? • contains mucus-secreting cells • contains ciliated cells • is covered by serosa • contains large mucosal folds that are extensively branched • contains smooth muscle in its walls
these all feature especially in the ampulla but also in the isthmus. Except the large mucosal folds that are extensively branched: this is specially in the ampulla —+-
