Sertoli cells are found in
1. ovaries and secrete progesterone
2. adrenal cortex and secrete adrenalin
3. seminiferous tubules and provide nutrition to germ cells
4. pancreas and secrete cholecystokinin
In the vertebrates testes, for nourishment during spermiogenesis, the spermatids get attached to
1. | Interstitial cells | 2. | Sperm-mother cells |
3. | Spermatocytes | 4. | Sertoli cells |
FSH:
1. | Acts on Sertoli cells and stimulates secretion of some factors that help in spermiogenesis |
2. | Acts on Sertoli cells and inhibits secretion of some factors that help in spermiogenesis |
3. | Acts on Leydig cells and stimulates secretion of some factors that help in spermiogenesis |
4. | Acts on Leydig cells and inhibits secretion of some factors that help in spermiogenesis |
Arrange the following process starting from the germ
cells of seminiferous tubule?
(i) Meiotic division in secondary spermatocytes.
(ii) Spermiation.
(iii) Spermiogenesis.
(iv) Capacitation.
1. (i), (ii), (iii), (iv)
2. (i), (iii), (ii), (iv)
3. (ii), (i), (iv), (iii)
4. (i), (ii), (iv), (iii)
Which of the following is wrong?
1. | Spermatogonia and leydig cells are present in seminiferous tubules |
2. | Small blood vessels are present along with Leydig cells |
3. | Leydig cells secrete Androgens |
4. | Sertoli cell provide nutrition to the germ cell. |
Which of the following cells during gametogenesis is normally diploid?

2. Spermatid
3. Spermatogonia
4. Secondary polar body
Which of the following cell completes the first meiotic division leading to the formation of two equal, haploid cells?
1. Spermatogonium
2. Primary spermatocytes
3. Secondary spermatocytes
4. Spermatids
Leydig cells:
1. Are present in seminiferous tubules and secrete androgens
2. Are present in seminiferous tubules and help in maturation of sperms
3. Are present in interstitial space and secrete androgens
4. Are present in interstitial space and help in maturation of sperms
The level of which hormone gets increased first and stimulate spermatogenesis at puberty?
1. | GnRH | 2. | Testosterone |
3. | Androgen | 4. | LG |
Each seminiferous tubule is lined on its inside by:
1. Spermatogonia
2. Primary spermatocytes
3. Sertoli cells
4. Both 1 and 3
