The correct Answer is:
To determine which statements are correct, let's analyze each one step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement (i) **Statement:** The secondary oocyte undergoes meiosis II which proceeds only till metaphase until a sperm enters it. **Analysis:** This statement is correct. The secondary oocyte does indeed undergo meiosis II but is arrested at metaphase II until fertilization occurs. When a sperm enters, it triggers the completion of meiosis II. ### Step 2: Analyze Statement (ii) **Statement:** Ovulation occurs about 36-38 hours after the start of LH surge at midcycle. **Analysis:** This statement is also correct. The luteinizing hormone (LH) surge is a key trigger for ovulation, which typically occurs about 36-38 hours after the surge begins. ### Step 3: Analyze Statement (iii) **Statement:** In humans, it takes about 74 hours to form a mature sperm from a primitive germ cell. **Analysis:** This statement is incorrect. The correct duration for the maturation of sperm from primitive germ cells is approximately 74 days, not hours. ### Step 4: Analyze Statement (iv) **Statement:** About 70% of the human ejaculate is contributed by bulbourethral glands. **Analysis:** This statement is also incorrect. The majority of the fluid in human ejaculate is contributed by the seminal vesicles, not the bulbourethral glands. ### Conclusion Based on the analysis: - **Correct Statements:** (i) and (ii) - **Incorrect Statements:** (iii) and (iv) ### Final Answer The correct statements are (i) and (ii). ---
