    Estrogen
    Androgen
    30s
  • Q2
    What is the primary female sex hormone?
    Estrogen, critical for female reproductive health and secondary traits
    LH, which stimulates ovulation during the menstrual cycle
    Androgen, present in both sexes but higher in males
    Testosterone, essential for male characteristics and sperm production
    30s
  • Q3
    What system regulates the production of sex hormones?
    Nervous system, which processes sensory input and controls movements
    Digestive system, involved in breaking down and absorbing nutrients
    Endocrine system, which uses hormones to regulate body functions
    Circulatory system, responsible for transporting blood and oxygen
    30s
  • Q4
    Where does the regulation of reproductive function begin?
    Brain, where key hormonal signals for reproduction are initiated
    Liver, involved in detoxification and metabolism processes
    Kidneys, which filter waste from the blood and form urine
    Heart, the organ pumping blood throughout the body
    30s
  • Q5
    Which structure in the brain produces GnRH (gonadotropin-releasing hormone)?
    Pituitary gland, which releases multiple stimulating hormones
    Adrenal glands, which produce stress-related hormones like cortisol
    Thyroid gland, which regulates metabolic rates and energy levels
    Hypothalamus, which signals the pituitary gland to release GnRH
    30s
  • Q6
    What is the role of GnRH in hormone regulation?
    To initiate the release of gonadotropins that act on gonads
    To increase the heart rate during physical activity
    To directly produce sex hormones like testosterone and estrogen
    To stimulate the pancreas to regulate blood sugar levels
    30s
  • Q7
    What are gonadotropins?
    Hormones from the liver that regulate nutrient metabolism
    Reproductive hormones that influence ovaries and testicles
    Enzymes that facilitate the breakdown of hormone molecules
    Immune system agents involved in defending against pathogens
    30s
  • Q8
    How is GnRH delivered to the pituitary gland?
    Through the lymphatic system transporting fluid and immune cells
    Through the bloodstream, as part of the circulatory pathway
    Via nerve signals transmitted from the hypothalamus
    Through a specialized portal system called the hypophyseal portal
    30s
  • Q9
    Which of the following is also known as the hypophysis?
    Adrenal gland, which produces adrenaline and cortisol
    Pituitary gland, a critical endocrine gland at the brain's base
    Thyroid gland, which produces hormones to regulate metabolism
    Hypothalamus, a region controlling hormones and body functions
    30s
  • Q10
    What triggers the pituitary gland to release gonadotropins?
    Estrogen, when its levels peak during the menstrual cycle
    GnRH, a hormone from the hypothalamus activating the pituitary
    Androgen, which signals male reproductive processes
    Blood sugar levels, when they rise above normal thresholds
    30s
  • Q11
    In females, gonadotropins primarily stimulate which organ?
    Ovaries, to promote ovulation and hormone production
    Pancreas, to regulate glucose and insulin levels
    Adrenal glands, which release hormones like adrenaline
    Testicles, for sperm and hormone production
    30s
  • Q12
    In males, gonadotropins primarily stimulate which organ?
    Thyroid gland, which controls the body’s metabolic processes
    Hypothalamus, which initiates signals for hormone production
    Testicles, to promote sperm production and hormone release
    Prostate, which produces fluid to nourish sperm
    30s
  • Q13
    What is the main purpose of gonadotropins?
    To assist in breaking down and absorbing nutrients
    To maintain normal blood pressure levels in the body
    To activate reproductive organs for gamete production
    To increase metabolic rates during physical activity
    30s
  • Q14
    Which hormone is responsible for signaling the start of the hormonal cascade in reproduction?
    Testosterone, crucial for male physical and reproductive development
    Progesterone, which maintains uterine lining during pregnancy
    GnRH, which triggers downstream hormone release for reproduction
    LH, which stimulates ovulation and hormone secretion
    30s
  • Q15
    What is the name of the gland that is located at the base of the brain and interacts with the hypothalamus?
    Pituitary gland, an endocrine gland central to hormone release
    Pineal gland, which regulates sleep-wake cycles using melatonin
    Thyroid gland, which produces hormones to control metabolism
    Adrenal gland, which releases hormones in response to stress
    30s
