Explanation / Answer

26. Option C is the correct answer. Human chorionic gonadotropin is a hormone secreted by the placenta after implantation which maintains the viability of the corpus luteum.

27. Option C is the correct answer. Male produces sperm and male has two sex chromosomes X ang Y. All the sperm produced contain either X or Y chromosome therefore the probability of carraying Y chromosome is 50%.

28. Option A is the correct answer. Serous membrane is a mesothelial tissue which lines certain internal cavities of the body.

29. Option D is the correct answer. Plasma proteins are large in size and thus do not pass during filtration.

30. Option C is the correct answer. The seminal vesicles secret seminal fluid which constitute 70% of the seman.

31. Option A is the correct answer. Villi and microvilli are small projection in small intestine which increases the surface area of intestine for effective absorption.

32. Option D is the correct answer. Liver secrets bile which is responsible for digestion of fats.

33. Option D is the correct answer. Acrosomal reaction occurs after a single sperm fertilized the egg to prevent another sperm to fertlize the same egg. Zona pellucida is the covering of egg which secrete enzymes for acrosomal reaction.
