1. How does human sperm move?

• A. Flagella
• B. Cilia
• C. Neutrophils
• D. None of the above

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Human sperm moves using flagella, which are whip-like structures that aid in propulsion. Flagella are tail-like structures found in sperm cells and help them swim towards the egg for fertilization. Cilia are shorter, hair-like structures that are not involved in the movement of sperm. Neutrophils are a type of white blood cell involved in the immune response and are not related to sperm locomotion.

2. Which of these methods can be used for the transfer of zygote or early embryo into the fallopian tube?

• A. GIFT
• B. IUT
• C. ZIFT
• D. ICSI

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C, ZIFT (Zygote Intrafallopian Transfer). ZIFT involves transferring a zygote or early embryo into the fallopian tube. GIFT (Gamete Intrafallopian Transfer - A) involves transferring unfertilized eggs and sperm into the fallopian tube for fertilization to occur inside the woman's body, not a zygote or early embryo. IUT (Intrauterine Transfer - B) is not specifically for transferring the zygote or early embryo into the fallopian tube, but rather into the uterus. ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection - D) is a technique where a single sperm is injected directly into an egg, not related to transferring embryos into the fallopian tube.

3. Which space is present between the bladder and the uterus?

• A. Vesico-uterine pouch
• B. Pubovesical pouch
• C. Retro-uterine pouch
• D. Recto-uterine pouch

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is the vesico-uterine pouch. This space is specifically located between the bladder and the uterus. The pubovesical pouch is incorrect as it refers to the space between the pubic bone and the bladder. The retro-uterine pouch, also known as the pouch of Douglas, is located between the uterus and rectum. The recto-uterine pouch is not a recognized anatomical term, making it an incorrect choice.

4. What is the most common symptom in all clinical types of abortion EXCEPT:

• A. Lower abdominal pain
• B. Per vaginal bleeding
• C. Show
• D. Backache

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C. 'Show' is not a common symptom in all types of abortion. Lower abdominal pain, per vaginal bleeding, and backache are common symptoms associated with abortion. Lower abdominal pain may result from uterine contractions, per vaginal bleeding is a typical presentation, and backache can be a symptom due to the process of abortion. 'Show' refers to the mucus plug that blocks the cervix during pregnancy and is not a typical symptom of abortion.

5. During an ectopic pregnancy, what is the likelihood of a rupture in the ampullary portion of the tube?

• A. Frequent
• B. Uncommon
• C. Occasional
• D. Never

Correct answer: A

Rationale: During an ectopic pregnancy, a rupture in the ampullary portion of the tube is frequent. This is due to the increased pressure within the fallopian tube as the embryo grows, leading to the rupture of the tube. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately describe the common occurrence of rupture in this specific part of the tube during an ectopic pregnancy.
