If you add a chemical to an egg cell that prevents the fast and slow blocks from occurring but does not prevent the receptor proteins from interacting with sperm recognition proteins, which of the following will happen Group of answer choices A. All sperm would be able to enter the egg b. No sperm would be able to enter the egg c. Polyspermy by the same species would be possible but sperm of different species would be blocked d. Only sperm from different species would be able to enter the egg

Figure 18.17 Which of the following statements about hormone regulation of the female reproductive cycle is false? a. LH and FSH are produced in the pituitary, and estrogen and progesterone are produced in the ovaries. b. Estradiol and progesterone secreted from the corpus luteum cause the endometrium to thicken. c. Both progesterone and estrogen are produced by the follicles. d. Secretion of GnRH by the hypothalamus is inhibited by low levels of estrogen but stimulated by high levels of estrogen.

In males, leydig cells make LH while sertoli cells make sperm false true
Egg laying in fruit flies can be triggered (induced) when males transfer their sperm to females. Which of the following is a selective advantage of induced egg laying for the male flies? Less time and energy is expended by the male. The males do not have to produce as much sperm. More eggs can be fertilized. A male fly's sperm is more likely to be used for fertilization.

1. The diagram in Figure 1 shows a section through the mammalian testis. With reference to this diagram answer the following questions: Hormone secreting cells A FIGURE 1 What percentage of each of the following types of cells would you expect to contain an X chromosome. Give a REASON for your answer in each case. i) type cell A ii) type cell B Name the cell type labelled B which under goes mitosis. State the importance of mitosis in a mature testis. State TWO ways in which cell division results in cell C being genetically different from one another. The graph in Figure 2 shows the effect of light on the period of oestrus in two groups of female sheep. The females in the control group were subjected to the normal seasonal variation in day length. Partially through the first year of the experiment, sheep in the experimental group were subjected to reversed day-length cycle. The period of oestrus of each group of sheep is shown in solid bands above the graph (Figure 2).
A study divides healthy females into two groups (A and B). Both groupsare composed of those who have been sexually active for at least 2 yearsand are not pregnant at the beginning of the experiment. The subjectsweigh about the same amount, and none smoke cigarettes, althoughsome drink alcohol occasionally. Group A individuals receive a placeboin the form of a sugar pill each morning of their menstrual cycles. GroupB individuals receive a pill containing estrogen and progesterone eachmorning of their menstrual cycles. Then plasma LH levels are measuredbefore, during, and after ovulation. The results are as follows:Group 4 Days BeforeOvulationDay ofOvulation4 Days AfterOvulationA 18 mg/100 mL 300 mg/100 mL 17 mg/100 mLB 21 mg/100 mL 157 mg/100 mL 15 mg/100 mLThe number of pregnancies in group A is 37/100 females/year. Thenumber of pregnancies in group B is 1.5/100 females/year. Whatconclusion can you reach on the basis of these data? Explain themechanism involved.
My college Bio teacher asked me this question in response to one of my photos I posted on Facebook: "I wonder why some birds exhibit sexual dimorphism while others do not." Can someone explain this phenomenom in detail?
Figure 43.15 Which of the following statements about hormone regulation of the female reproductive cycle is false? LH and FSH are produced in the pituitary, and estradiol and progesterone are produced in the ovaries. Estradiol and progesterone secreted from the corpus luteum cause the endometrium to thicken. Both progesterone and estradiol are produced by the follicles. Secretion of GnRH by the hypothalamus is inhibited by low levels of estradiol but stimulated by high levels of estradiol.
