Match the column — Sperm concentration in semen of various animals:
| TABLE-I (Animal Semen) | TABLE-II (Sperm Concentration per ml) |
|---|---|
| 1. Bull semen | (a) 7000 million |
| 2. Ram semen | (b) 120 million |
| 3. Stallion semen | (c) 3500 million |
| 4. Boar semen | (d) 3000 million |
| 5. Fowl semen | (e) 270 million |
| 6. Turkey semen | (f) 1200 million |
- 1-f, 2-d, 3-b, 4-e, 5-c, 6-a ✓ Correct
- 1-f, 2-c, 3-b, 4-d, 5-e, 6-a
- 1-d, 2-c, 3-b, 4-e, 5-f, 6-a
- 1-f, 2-d, 3-e, 4-b, 5-c, 6-a
Explanation:
Correct Answer: 1-f, 2-d, 3-b, 4-e, 5-c, 6-a
The correct matching of animal semen with sperm concentration per ml:
- Bull: 1200 million/ml
- Ram: 3000 million/ml (highest among mammals)
- Stallion: 120 million/ml (lowest among mammals — but highest semen volume)
- Boar: 270 million/ml
- Fowl: 3500 million/ml
- Turkey: 7000 million/ml (highest of all)
Key Contrasts to Remember
- Minimum sperm concentration + Maximum semen volume: Ram semen has minimum volume but maximum concentration among mammals.
- Maximum semen volume per ejaculate: Boar (200–250 ml)
- Stallion: Has the lowest sperm concentration among domestic mammals but the semen volume is 125 ml (second only to boar).
