NSG 210 Module 1 WEEK 2:
Reproduction Questions and Answers
Graded A+
What is the primary function of the male reproductive system?


✔✔The primary function of the male reproductive system is to produce sperm and deliver it to

the female reproductive system for fertilization.




How does the female reproductive system support pregnancy?


✔✔The female reproductive system supports pregnancy by providing a place for the fertilized

egg to implant and develop, supported by the uterus and the placenta.




What is the role of the fallopian tubes in the reproductive process?


✔✔The fallopian tubes are responsible for transporting the egg from the ovary to the uterus and

are the site where fertilization typically occurs.




What hormones are involved in the regulation of the menstrual cycle?


✔✔Estrogen and progesterone play key roles in regulating the menstrual cycle by controlling the

growth and shedding of the uterine lining.




1

,What is the purpose of the prostate gland in the male reproductive system?


✔✔The prostate gland produces seminal fluid that nourishes and transports sperm during

ejaculation.




What changes occur in the body during menopause?


✔✔During menopause, the ovaries stop producing eggs, leading to a decline in estrogen and

progesterone levels, which causes the cessation of menstrual cycles and can lead to various

physical and emotional changes.




What is the function of the cervix in the female reproductive system?


✔✔The cervix acts as a barrier to protect the uterus from infections and also serves as the

opening through which sperm enters during intercourse and a baby exits during childbirth.




What is the process of ovulation?


✔✔Ovulation is the release of a mature egg from the ovary into the fallopian tube, typically

occurring around the middle of the menstrual cycle, in preparation for possible fertilization.




How does the endometrium change throughout the menstrual cycle?




2

,✔✔The endometrium thickens in response to rising estrogen levels, preparing for a potential

pregnancy. If fertilization does not occur, it sheds, resulting in menstruation.




What role do the testes play in the male reproductive system?


✔✔The testes are responsible for producing sperm and testosterone, which is essential for the

development of male secondary sexual characteristics and sperm production.




How does the body prepare for pregnancy during the luteal phase?


✔✔During the luteal phase, the corpus luteum secretes progesterone, which thickens the

endometrial lining to prepare it for implantation of a fertilized egg.




What are the signs of ovulation?


✔✔Signs of ovulation may include a slight rise in body temperature, changes in cervical mucus,

and sometimes mild pelvic discomfort or cramping.




What are common symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS)?


✔✔Common symptoms of PMS include mood swings, irritability, bloating, breast tenderness,

and fatigue, typically occurring in the second half of the menstrual cycle.




3

, How does the hypothalamus regulate reproduction?


✔✔The hypothalamus regulates reproduction by releasing gonadotropin-releasing hormone

(GnRH), which signals the pituitary gland to release hormones that control the function of the

ovaries and testes.




What is the function of the seminal vesicles?


✔✔The seminal vesicles produce a thick fluid that contains fructose, which nourishes sperm and

provides energy during its journey through the male reproductive tract.




What is the function of the uterus in the female reproductive system?


✔✔The uterus is the organ where a fertilized egg implants and develops during pregnancy. It

also sheds its lining during menstruation if pregnancy does not occur.




How do birth control pills prevent pregnancy?


✔✔Birth control pills prevent pregnancy by altering hormone levels to inhibit ovulation, thicken

cervical mucus to block sperm, and thin the uterine lining to prevent implantation.




What are the stages of labor?
