Placenta Type of antibody that crosses the placenta A. IgA B. IgE C. IgG D. IgM

Explanation / Answer

Answer=65] hormone that prevents the corpous leuteum from degerating right after a fertilized ovum is implanted in the endometrium

B] human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG)

Explianation= if oocyte is fertilized & begins to devide ,the corpous luteum persists past its normal two -week lifespan .it is prevented from degerating by the human  chorionic gonadotropin (HCG)

HCG is a hormonr produced by the chorion of the embryo as early as 8 -12 days after fertilization .HCG acts like as a LH in stimulating the secretory activity of the corpous luteum & in presence of hCG in maternal blood or urine is an indicator of pregnancy

INCORRECT OPTIONS ARE=

A]estrogen =development of female secondary sexual characteristics

c] Oxytocin = contraction of uterus during childbirth & lactation

D] progesterone = thikning the lining of the uterus each month .the enriched endometrium lining is prepared to receive & nourish a fertilized egg

66] Chemical that reduces the surface tension in alveoli is

D] Surfactant

explination= pulmonary surfactant is a surface active lipoprotein complex formed by II type alveolar cells

The proteins & lipids that make up the surfactant have both hydrophillic & hydrophobic regions

By adsorbing to the air water interface of alveoli,with hydrophillic head groups in the water & hydrophobic tail towards the air ,the main lipid component of the surfactant

Answer=

67] hormone that stimulates uterine contraction during labor is

B] Oxytocin

Explaination= main important role of oxytocin in body is contraction of uterine mucscle during childbirth
