Question

1. T or F for homologous structure in Female and Male reproductive system for the following:

a) Vas deferens to fallopian tubes = T or F

b) Scro-tum to Labia Majora = T or F

c) Foreskin to clitoral hood = T or F

d) Corpus cavernosum to cli-toris = T or F

2. When describing the location of the brachial plexus which one is NOT correct?

a) passes near the 1st rib posterior to the clavicle

b) enters the axilla

c) In the neck alongside the first four cervical vertebrae

d) extends into brachium

e) extends inferiorly and laterally on either side of the last few cervical and first thoracic vertebrae

3. What are the three basic structures of the portal triad in the liver:

a) a branch of hepatic portal vein, a branch of hepatic artery, and a bile duct.

b) branches of the hepatic artery, central vein, and hepatic vein.

c) a common bile duct, and branches of the right and left hepatic ducts.

d) branches of the hepatic portal vein, hepatic vein, and hepatic artery.

4. Which one is not a portion part of the nephron?

a) glomerular capsule

b) proximal convoluted tubule

c) loop of Henle

d) renal pelvis

e) distal convoluted tubule

Explanation / Answer

Answer 1: a and d are False (As explained below)

For the paramesonephric duct, appendix testis is the homologue for fallopian tubes. For the genital tubercle, penes in the male reproductive system is the homologue for clitorus in the female reproductive system.

Answer 2: c (As explained below)

The brachial plexus extends inferiorly and laterally on either side of the last few cervical and first thoracic vertebrae and not alongside the first four cervical vertebrae.

Answer 3: a (As explained below)

Structurally, the portal triad comprises of an hepatic artery or arteriole, a hepatic vein or veniole and a bile ductule.

Answer 4: d (As explained below)

Renal pelvis is a large bony frame near the spine to which the hindlimbs of vertebrates are attached and has nothing to do with the structure of the nephrons in the kidneys.
