The male accessory glands include paired seminal vesicles, a prostate and
paired bulbourethral glands. Secretions of these glands constitute the fluid
of semen which is rich in fructose, calcium and certain enzymes. The
secretions of bulbourethral glands also help in the lubrication of the penis.
The urethra is the duct that extends through the penis in male reproductive
system and serves a common passage for both sperm and urine. In
females, urethra has no reproductive function.

7. ___ are two hormones produced by ovary which take part in menstrual cycle
and maintenance of pregnancy.
D. FSH and LH
Estrogen and Progesterone are the two main hormones secreted by ovary
which take part in menstrual cycle and pregnancy. During pregnancy, these
hormones prevent the ovary from releasing an egg, thicken the cervical
mucus and making it difficult for the sperm to reach the egg and change the
lining of the uterus and making implantation difficult.
8.
Arrange the following events of the menstrual cycle in correct sequence.
a) release of an egg from the ovary
b) breakdown of the thickened inner wall of the uterus
c) thickening of the wall of the uterus
d) maturation of the ovum
A. d→a→b→c
B. a→b→d→c
C. d→a→c→b
D. a→c→d→b
Every month, usually one egg matures and is released from an ovary by a
process called ovulation. In the meantime, the inner lining of the uterus
starts thickening and continues to do so even after ovulation, in order to
prepare for a fertilised egg. If fertilisation does not happen, the
thickened inner lining is broken down and shed in the form of blood.

9. Given are some events occurring in plant fertilisation.
A. Pollen grains land on stigma.
B. Tip of pollen tube breaks and releases the male gametes.
C. Pollen tube is formed.
D. Male gamete fuses with the egg.
Choose the option which represents the correct sequence of events?
A. A→B → C→D
B. A→C → B→D
C. A→D→B→C
D. A→D → C→B
Once the pollen lands on the stigma, it forms a pollen tube. The pollen tube
moves through the style and reaches the ovary. Once it reaches the ovule,
the tip of the pollen tube bursts and releases the male gametes. In the
ovule, the male gamete fuses with the egg cell (female gamete) to form the
zygote. The zygote develops into the plant embryo and the ovule develops
into the seed.
