ANSC 333 Exam 3
Do male or females increase the probability of fertilization? - ANS-males
Do male or female prevent infection of the upper reproductive tract? - ANS-female
What is the impact of the female tract? - ANS-progressive decrease in sperm number
but increase in quality
What does an increase of fertilization capacity mean? - ANS-activated to fertilize the
oocyte
As sperm quality increases what does the sperm number count do? - ANS-decrease
What is the site of deposition for ruminants, rabbits, cats, and dogs? - ANS-caudal
vagina
What is the site of deposition for horses, pigs, and camelids? - ANS-cervical
What is the volume and pressure alter final disposition in horses? - ANS-caudal cervix
to uterus
What is the volume and pressure alter final disposition in pigs? - ANS-cranial cervix to
uterus
What is the volume and pressure alter final disposition in dogs? - ANS-caudal vagina to
uterus
What does retrograde loss mean? - ANS-semen deposited in the female tract can flow
out of the track sometimes
What are the combination factors to retrograde loss? - ANS-the volume of ejaculation
and fluid production and its flow
How does the male limit retrograde loss? - ANS-by producing a gel fractions as part of
ejaculation
How does gel fractions help prevent the loss of retrograde? - ANS-acts as a gel plug
, When you AI, how do you prevent retrograde loss? - ANS-the material needs to go past
the cervix and deposit onto the other side of the cervix
What does privilege pathway mean? - ANS-estrogen causes the production of two types
of. mucus within the cervical fold
What does sulfomucins privilege pathway do? - ANS-high viscosity (thick mucus),
caudal flow (flow out of the repro tract), apical surface
What does sialomucin privilege pathway do? - ANS-low viscosity (thin and can swim
mucus), basal crypts, caudal flow
Which one of the two privilege pathways are the deepest part of the cervix? -
ANS-sialomucin
In response to estrogen, were do neutrophils acuumulate? - ANS-sub-mucosa
After insemination what do the neutriphils invade? - ANS-uterine lumen (outside the
body)
Neutrophil invasion is in response to what? - ANS-estrogen
What are neutrophils not good at? - ANS-educating adaptive immune system
Are neutrophils abundant or non abundant? - ANS-most abundant in the body
What blood cell type are neutrophils? - ANS-white
Do neutrophils have a short or long life span? - ANS-short (1-2 days)
What do phagocytes do? - ANS-engulf (eat) and destroy pathogens
What are extracellular nets? - ANS-neutrophils can expel their DNA to create
extracellular nets
Do neutrophils increase or decrease capture and binding of sperm? - ANS-increase
In bovine, what is the effect of seminal plasma? - ANS-increases capture
In equine, what is the effect of seminal plasma? - ANS-decreases capture
