Sample Male Reproductive Physiology MCQs with answers
Sample MCQ #1
Negative feedback in spermatogenesis is by
AABP
BInhibin
CProgesterone
DNone
Show Answer & Explanation ▾
✓ Correct Answer: B. Inhibin
Sertoli cells produce the hormone inhibin which inhibits pituitary FSH (negative feedback) Reference: Ganong, 25th edition Page no.421
Sample MCQ #2
Sertoli cell feedback mechanism involves
ADecreased LH
BDecreased FSH
CDecreased TRH
DDecreased CRH
Show Answer & Explanation ▾
✓ Correct Answer: B. Decreased FSH
Sertoli cells produce the hormone inhibin which inhibits pituitary FSH (negative feedback) LH acts on the Leydig cells of testis to increase the production and secretion of testosterone which inhibits LH (negative feedback). Reference: Ganong, 25th edition Page no.417
Sample MCQ #3
Testosterone secreted by in male
ASertoli cell
BLeydig cell
CVas deferens
DEpididymis
Show Answer & Explanation ▾
✓ Correct Answer: B. Leydig cell
Testosterone secreted by in Male - Leydig cells Reference: Ganong, 25th edition Page no.396
Sample MCQ #4
Blood tissue barrier in testis is formed by
ABasal lamina and Interstitial cells
BAdjacent Sertoli cells with basal lamina
CBasal lamina and spermatogonia
DBasal lamina and Leydig cells
Show Answer & Explanation ▾
✓ Correct Answer: B. Adjacent Sertoli cells with basal lamina
Vaginal secretion is acidic but it is neutralized by the alkaline characteristic of the prostatic fluid in semen Reference: Ganong, 25th edition Page no.421
Sample MCQ #6
Prolonged administration of testosterone in man cases
AAzoospermia
BIncreased GnRH
CIncreased sperm motility
DIncreased spermatogenesis
Show Answer & Explanation ▾
✓ Correct Answer: A. Azoospermia
Prolonged administration of testosterone causes azoospermia by suppression of pituitary gonadotropins Reference: Ganong, 25th edition Page no.422
Sample MCQ #7
What is the correct sequence of muscle activation during ejaculation?
Explanation: Ejaculation is a coordinated process that occurs in two main phases: emission and expulsion . During the expulsion phase , the sequence of muscle activity proceeds as follows: Ischiocavernosus muscle contraction : These muscles contract first to help maintain penile rigidity by compressing the base of the corpora cavernosa , thereby increasing intracavernosal pressure . Relaxation of the external urethral sphincter : This relaxation permits the passage of semen from the prostatic urethra into the penile urethra . Bulbospongiosus muscle contraction : Finally, these muscles contract rhythmically to forcefully expel semen from the penile urethra during ejaculation. Hence option A,B and D are incorrect
Sample MCQ #8
Following changes are seen during capitation of a sperms except-
AIncreased permeability to calcium
BDecreased permeability to calcium
CRemoval of Cholesterol from acrosome
DIncreased motility
Show Answer & Explanation ▾
✓ Correct Answer: B. Decreased permeability to calcium
Sperm acquires the capability of motility in epididymis Forward progressive motility of sperm requires activation of a Ca 2+ channel called CatSper leading to increased permeability to calcium CatSper is present in the principal piece of sperm Reference: Ganong, 25th edition Page no.421
