A batch of students are taught about fertilisation and implantation. They have to answer the following questions by referring to the diagram.
As shown in the diagram, the egg fertilization occurs at B. Instead of implanting at H it gets implanted at D. Which type of pregnancy would this be?
(1) Ectopic pregnancy
(2) Intrauterine pregnancy
(3) Fimbrial pregnancy
(4) Cervical pregnancy

1. Primary spermatocyte
2. Primary oocyte
3. First polar body
4. Zygote
Identify the human development stage shown below as well as the related right place of its occurrence in a normal pregnant woman, and select the right option for the two together:
| Developmental stage | Site of occurrence | |
| 1. | Blastula | End part of fallopian tube |
| 2. | Blastocyst | Uterine wall |
| 3. | 8-celled morula | Starting point of fallopian tube |
| 4. | Late morula | Middle part of fallopian tube |
Match the following columns and select the correct option:
| Column I | Column II | ||
| (a) | Ovary | (i) | Human chorionic gonadotropin |
| (b) | Placenta | (ii) | Estrogen & Progesterone |
| (c) | Corpus luteum | (iii) | Androgens |
| (d) | Leydig cells | (iv) | Progesterone only |
| Options: | (a) | (b) | (c) | (d) |
| 1. | (iv) | (iii) | (ii) | (i) |
| 2. | (i) | (ii) | (iii) | (iv) |
| 3. | (i) | (iii) | (ii) | (iv) |
| 4. | (ii) | (i) | (iv) | (iii) |
Select the correct option of haploid cells from the following groups :
| 1. | Primary oocyte, Secondary oocyte, Spermatid |
| 2. | Secondary spermatocyte, First polar body, Ovum |
| 3. | Spermatogonia, Primary spermatocyte, Spermatid |
| 4. | Primary spermatocyte, Secondary spermatocyte, Second polar body |
In human beings, at the end of 12 weeks (first trimester) of pregnancy, the following is observed:
| 1. | Eyelids and eyelashes are formed |
| 2. | Most of the major organ systems are formed |
| 3. | The head is covered with fine hair |
| 4. | Movement of the fetus |
| 1. | Cleavage divisions in early embryonic stages are mitotic divisions. |
| 2. | Embryo with 4-8 cells is called as morula. |
| 3. | Implantation occurs at the stage of blastocyst. |
| 4. | Placenta acts as an endocrine tissue and produces some hormones. |
