Question 1
1 / -0

The method through which childless couples can be assisted to bear children is called:

A
MTP

B
IUD

C
ART

D
Tubectomy
Solution
- MTP: Medical Termination of Pregnancy.
- IUD: Intra-Uterine Devices
- Tubectomy is a surgical process that blocks the fallopian tubes in females.
- IUDs and tubectomy are contraceptive methods for females.
- ART : Assisted Reproduction Treatment.
The childless couples could be assisted to have children through certain special techniques which are commonly known as assisted reproductive technologies (ART). The important examples of ART include In vitro fertilization or IVF, Embryo transfer or ET, ZIFT or zygote intrafallopian transfer, GIFT or gamete intrafallopian transfer, artificial insemination AI, intrauterine insemination, or IUI.
Question 2
1 / -0

GIFT involves

A
Transfer of zygote into the fallopian tube

B
Transfer of embryo into the uterus

C
Transfer of a mixture of sperms and ova into the fallopian tube

D
Transfer of a mixture of sperm and ova into the uterus.

Solution

GIFT (gamete intra fallopian transfer) is an assisted reproductive procedure which involves removing a woman’s eggs, mixing them with sperm, and immediately placing them into a fallopian tube. One of the main differences between this procedure and in vitro fertilization (IVF) and zygote intrafallopian transfer (ZIFT) procedures is that with GIFT the fertilization process takes place inside the fallopian tube rather than in a laboratory.
So, the correct answer is 'Transfer of a mixture of sperms and ova into the fallopian tube'.
Question 3
1 / -0

Female infanticide is commonly reported from

A
Usalampatti

B
Madurai

C
Kanyakumari

D
Rajasthan

Solution

Amniocentesis is an analysis of amniotic fluid to ascertain any congenital genetic or chromosomal disorder in the fetus. One dangerous trend is the misuse of amniocentesis to determine the sex of the unborn child. Frequently, if the fetus is found to be female, it is followed by MTP or medical termination of pregnancy- this is totally illegal. This problem is especially acute in north Indian states like Rajasthan, Punjab, Haryana.
Thus the correct answer is option D.
Question 4
1 / -0

The most important component of the oral contraceptive pills is

A
Progesterone

B
Growth hormone

C
Thyroxine

D
Luteinizing hormone

Solution

Oral administration of small doses of progesterone is a contraceptive method used by the females. They are used in the form of tablets and hence are popularly called the pills. Pills have to be taken daily for a period of 21 days starting preferably within the first five days of menstrual cycle. After a gap of 7 days (during which menstruation occurs) it has to be repeated in the same pattern till the female desires to prevent conception. They inhibit ovulation and implantation as well as alter the quality of cervical mucus to prevent/ retard entry of sperms. Pills are very effective with lesser side effects and are well accepted by the females.
So, the correct answer is 'Progesterone'
Question 5
1 / -0

In breast feeding women, which of the following can be regarded as the best hormonal contraception method?

A
Sequential pill

B
Biphasic pills

C
Both A and B

D
None of the above

Solution

Lactational amenorrhea or (absence of menstruation) method of contraception is based on the fact that ovulation and therefore the menstrual cycle do not occur during the period of intense lactation following parturition. Therefore, as long as the mother breastfeeds the child fully, chances of conception are almost nil. However, this method has been reported to be effective only up to a maximum period of six months following parturition. As no medicines or devices are used in these methods, side effects are almost nil. Chances of failure, though, of this method are also high.
Question 6
1 / -0

Artificial insemination means the

A
Transfer of sperms of the husband to a test tube containing ova.

B
Artificial introduction of sperms of a healthy donor into the vagina.

C
Introduction of sperms of a healthy donor directly into the ovary.

D
Transfer of sperms of healthy donor to a test tube containing ova.
Solution
Correct option: B
Explanation:
Artificial insemination is a technique in which semen is artificially introduced to the female vagina.
ART refers to "Assisted Reproductive Techniques" and it includes various techniques to solve infertility issues.
It includes GIFT, ZIFT, AI, ICSI, etc.
This technique is taken into account in case of male infertility, i.e, low sperm count or low sperm motility.
The normal sperm count must be 15-259 million/ml of semen and that of sperm motility must be 40-81%.
Hence, artificial insemination means the "artificial introduction of sperms of a healthy donor into the vagina".
Question 7

D

D
B

Solution

Question 10
1 / -0

When a species of an organism cannot form a zygote but the zygote survives, the phenomenon is known as

A
Hybrid vigour

B
Hybrid sterility

C
Hybrid zygote

D
Hybrid fertility

Solution

Hybrid zygotes sometimes develop into adults, such as mules (hybrids between female horses and male donkeys), but the adults fail to develop functional gametes and are sterile. This phenomenon is called as hybrid sterility. Thus, option B is correct.
Heterosis, also called hybrid vigour, the increase in such characteristics as size, growth rate, fertility, and yield of a hybrid organism over those of its parents. Plant and animal breeders exploit heterosis by mating two different pure-bred lines that have certain desirable traits. Thus, option A is wrong.
In some cases, no barriers exist to mating between members of different species. In these cases, the zygote formed is called a hybrid zygote. Thus, option C is wrong.
Fertility ability of a hybrid is called as hybrid fertility. Thus, option D is wrong.
