Given below are two statements.
Statement I - The external genitalia of female contains two thin folds called labia majora which forms hood-like covering around clitoris.
Statement II - The vestibular glands are homologous to the Cowper's gland of the male reproductive system.
In the light of above statements, choose the correct option given below:
Statement I - The external genitalia of female contains two thin folds called labia majora which forms hood-like covering around clitoris.
Statement II - The vestibular glands are homologous to the Cowper's gland of the male reproductive system.
In the light of above statements, choose the correct option given below:
Options
- ABoth statement I and statement II are correct.
- BBoth statement I and statement II are incorrect.
- CStatement I is correct but statement II is incorrect.
- DStatement I is incorrect but statement II is correct.
Correct answer
D. Statement I is incorrect but statement II is correct.
Step-by-step solution
Statement I is incorrect because the labia majora are fleshy folds of tissue that extend down from the mons pubis and surround the vaginal opening. The labia minora are paired thin folds of tissue under the labia majora, and it is the labia minora that form the hood-like covering (prepuce) around the clitoris.
Statement II is correct because the greater vestibular glands (Bartholin's glands) in females are homologous to the bulbourethral glands (Cowper's glands) in the male reproductive system. Both secrete mucus for lubrication.
Therefore, Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct.
Answer: Statement I is incorrect but statement II is correct.
Statement II is correct because the greater vestibular glands (Bartholin's glands) in females are homologous to the bulbourethral glands (Cowper's glands) in the male reproductive system. Both secrete mucus for lubrication.
Therefore, Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct.
Answer: Statement I is incorrect but statement II is correct.
