Which of the followings is a phase in the menstrual cycle?

Correct answer: D. All of these

  • A. Menstruation
  • B. Luteal
  • C. Ovulation
  • D. All of these

Explanation

Menstruation is the phase where the uterine lining sheds, leading to vaginal bleeding. It typically occurs at the beginning of the menstrual cycle. The luteal phase occurs after ovulation and before menstruation. During this phase, the ruptured follicle transforms into the corpus luteum, which produces progesterone to support a potential pregnancy. Ovulation is the phase where a mature egg is released from the ovary and is available for fertilization. It usually occurs around the middle of the menstrual cycle.
