Assertion : Embryonic development proves interrelationship and common ancestory of metazoans.
Reason : It involves similar sequence of five dynamic processes during development.
Assertion : There is generally monospermy in most of animals.
Reason : Vitelline membrane of ovum checks polyspermy.
Assertion : Penetration of sperm into ovum is a chemical process.
Reason : Acrosome of sperm secretes a lytic enzyme hyaluronidase which dissolves vitelline membrane of ovum.
Assertion : Cleavage is also called fractionating process.
Reason : In cleavage, number of blastomeres increases but size of blastomears decreases.
Assertion : Gastrular movements are morphogenetic.
Reason : During gastrulation, cells move in masses and towards definite direction.
Assertion : In human male, testes are extra-abdominal and lie in scrotal sacs.
Reason : Scrotum acts as thermoregulator and keeps testicular temperature lower by 2°C normal spermatogenesis.
Assertion : Urethra in human male acts as urinogenital canal.
Reason : Urethra carries only urine while sperms are carried by vasa deferentia only.
Assertion : At puberty, human male develops secondary sexual characters.
Reason : At puberty, there is decreased secretion of testosterone in male.
Assertion : Fallopian funnel of oviduct is with finger-like fimbriae.
Reason : Graafian follicle of ovary is with secondary oocyte hanging in cavity called antrum.
Assertion : Corpus luteum degenerates if the ovum remains unfertilized.
Reason : Corpus luteum secretes progesterone which maintains the pregnancy.
