CHECK FOR UNDERSTANDING

1. B

RATIO: The vulva consists of the external female sex organs.

2. C

RATIO: Doderlein bacilli produce lactic acid making the pH 4 to 5 which is acidic thus, preventing
infections.

3. D

RATIO: During the menopausal stage, there is no functioning ova left in the uterus.

4. D

RATIO: Skene's glands secrete mucus to provide vaginal lubrication during sexual arousal.

5. D

RATIO: Bartholinitis is inflammation of one or both of the two Bartholin's glands.

6. B

RATIO: The vagina is the female reproductive tract and has two primary functions, sexual intercourse
and childbirth. The ovaries house the product of conception.

7. C

RATIO: The Fallopian tube allows passage of the egg from the ovary to the uterus. It is the site of
fertilization. Interspersed between the ciliated cells are peg cells, which contain apical granules and
produce the tubular fluid that contains nutrients for spermatozoa, oocytes, and zygotes. FSH, estrogen,
and LH are responsible for oogenesis.

8. A

RATIO: Epididymis is a tightly coiled tube responsible for conducting sperm from the tubule to the vas
deferens.

9. B

RATIO: Progesterone hormone or hormone of the mother causes the BBT to drop slightly during
ovulation and rise 1F after.
10. A

RATIO: The gonads are the primary reproductive organs, which are the testes in the male and the
ovaries in the female.

AL STRATEGY

Three things you learned:

1. Identify the anatomy and physiology pertinent to reproductive and sexual health

2. Differentiate the male and female physiological changes during puberty

3. Identify the parts and functions of the mammary glands

Two things you'd like to learn more about

1. The male reproductive system

2. Abnormalities in the male and female reproductive system.

One question you still have:

In a hermaphrodite person, do both genitals function correctly?
