Reason (R): LH acts on Sertoli cells to release factors for spermiogenesis.
121.Assertion (A): Spermiation is different from spermiogenesis.
Reason (R): Spermiogenesis transforms spermatids into spermatozoa, whereas spermiation releases spermatozoa from seminiferous tubules.
Reason (R): Spermiogenesis transforms spermatids into spermatozoa, whereas spermiation releases spermatozoa from seminiferous tubules.
122.Assertion (A): First meiotic division in oogenesis produces a large secondary oocyte and a tiny polar body.

Reason (R): The division is unequal and secondary oocyte retains most nutrient-rich cytoplasm.
123.Assertion (A): Menstruation occurs when the released ovum is fertilised.
Reason (R): Corpus luteum secretes progesterone for maintenance of endometrium.
Reason (R): Corpus luteum secretes progesterone for maintenance of endometrium.
124.Assertion (A): LH surge induces ovulation.
Reason (R): LH surge causes rupture of the Graafian follicle.
Reason (R): LH surge causes rupture of the Graafian follicle.
125.Assertion (A): Not every copulation leads to fertilisation and pregnancy.
Reason (R): Fertilisation requires simultaneous transport of sperms and ovum to ampullary region.
Reason (R): Fertilisation requires simultaneous transport of sperms and ovum to ampullary region.
126.Assertion (A): Only one sperm can fertilise an ovum.
Reason (R): Sperm contact with zona pellucida induces membrane changes blocking entry of additional sperms.
Reason (R): Sperm contact with zona pellucida induces membrane changes blocking entry of additional sperms.
127.Assertion (A): Father determines the sex of the baby.
Reason (R): Ova carry X chromosome while sperms may carry either X or Y chromosome.
Reason (R): Ova carry X chromosome while sperms may carry either X or Y chromosome.
128.Assertion (A): Placenta acts as an endocrine tissue.
Reason (R): Placenta produces hCG, hPL, estrogens and progestogens.
Reason (R): Placenta produces hCG, hPL, estrogens and progestogens.
129.Assertion (A): Parturition is a neuroendocrine mechanism.
Reason (R): Foetal ejection reflex triggers maternal pituitary oxytocin, which increases uterine contractions.
Reason (R): Foetal ejection reflex triggers maternal pituitary oxytocin, which increases uterine contractions.
130.Assertion (A): Colostrum is recommended for newborn babies.
Reason (R): Colostrum contains several antibodies essential for developing resistance.
Reason (R): Colostrum contains several antibodies essential for developing resistance.
