Questions and Answers Portage Learning
This review covers the anatomy and physiology of the reproductive system for the
Module 9 exam . Questions include multiple choice, true/false, identification, and
short answer formats .
SECTION 1: MALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Question 1
Identify the structures in Figure 16.1: K → ?, N → ?, C → ?
A) Seminiferous tubule; Septum; Efferent ductule
B) Epididymis; Septum; Vas deferens
C) Seminiferous tubule; Tunica albuginea; Efferent ductule
D) Seminiferous tubule; Septum; Ejaculatory duct
Correct Answer: A
1
,Rationale: In the testis, K indicates the seminiferous tubules where
spermatogenesis occurs, N is the septum dividing the testis into lobules, and C
indicates the efferent ductules connecting the rete testis to the epididymis .
Question 2
Which of the following terms does NOT belong with the others?
A) Prostate gland
B) Seminal vesicle
C) Bulbourethral gland
D) Vas deferens
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The prostate, seminal vesicles, and bulbourethral glands are accessory
glands that produce seminal fluid. The vas deferens is a duct that transports sperm,
not a gland .
Question 3
The spongy urethra is the last portion of the male reproductive tract that sperm
pass through before leaving the body.
A) True
B) False
Correct Answer: A
2
,Rationale: Sperm travel from the seminiferous tubules → epididymis → vas
deferens → ejaculatory duct → urethra (prostatic, membranous, then spongy)
before exiting the body .
Question 4
Sperm travel from the seminiferous tubules directly into the efferent ductules.
A) True
B) False
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Sperm travel from the seminiferous tubules → rete testis → efferent
ductules → epididymis .
Question 5
What is smegma?
A) A waxy secretion from the preputial glands
B) A layer of tissue surrounding the urethra
C) A lubricating fluid from seminal vesicles
D) A hormone that regulates penile function
Correct Answer: A
3
, Rationale: Smegma is a waxy, sebaceous secretion produced by the preputial
glands that accumulates under the foreskin .
Question 6
In Figure 16.1, the testis is indicated by which label?
A) Label H
B) Label J
C) Label K
D) Label C
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Label K indicates the testis in the anatomical diagram .
Question 7
In Figure 16.1, the epididymis is indicated by which label?
A) Label J
B) Label K
C) Label G
D) Label C
