Detailed Explanation
  • 1. Pre-scrotal sigmoid flexure → (e) Boar: In the boar (and camel), the 'S'-shaped sigmoid flexure of the penis is located in front of (pre-scrotal to) the scrotum.
  • 2. Post-scrotal sigmoid flexure → (c) Bull: In the bull (ram and buck), the sigmoid flexure is located behind (post-scrotal to) the scrotum.
  • 3. Long day breeder → (d) Mare: The mare breeds in response to increasing day length (spring/summer) — she is a long-day (photoperiod-stimulated) seasonal polyestrous animal. Cat is also a long-day breeder.
  • 4. Monoestrous animal → (a) Bitch: The bitch cycles only once or twice per year (monoestrous) — the estrous cycle length is 6–7 months.
  • 5. Corona glandis → (b) Stallion: The corona glandis is the ridge or crown around the glans penis — prominent in the stallion (double-folded prepuce reveals it on erection).
