Each of the following statements is a step in the menstrual cycle. Identify when each step occurs by selecting the appropriate day(s) from the drop-down menu.

Question

The follicle reaches maturity.

The blood and tissues lining the uterus are shed.

If the egg is unfertilized, hormone levels drop and the next cycle begins.

Hormones cause follicles to develop in ovaries.

Hormones cause the mature follicle and the adjacent ovary wall to rupture and release an egg.

Answer 1

The menstrual cycle can be divided into several key steps, typically occurring over a span of about 28 days, although this can vary among individuals. Here’s a breakdown of the events you mentioned along with the approximate days they occur:

1. The follicle reaches maturity - This typically occurs around Day 14 of the cycle (this is also close to ovulation).

2. The blood and tissues lining the uterus are shed - This occurs during Days 1-5 of the cycle, which is commonly referred to as menstruation.

3. If the egg is unfertilized, hormone levels drop and the next cycle begins - This usually begins around Day 28 if fertilization has not occurred.

4. Hormones cause follicles to develop in ovaries - This process starts at the beginning of the cycle, around Days 1-13.

5. Hormones cause the mature follicle and the adjacent ovary wall to rupture and release an egg - This event, known as ovulation, occurs approximately on Day 14.

If you have a specific day range to select for each statement, please provide those options for an accurate response.

Answer 2

Each of the following statements is a step in the menstrual cycle. Identify when each step occurs by selecting the appropriate day(s) from the drop-down menu.

The follicle reaches maturity.

✔ Day 1
The blood and tissues lining the uterus are shed.

✔ Days 25-28
If the egg is unfertilized, hormone levels drop and the next cycle begins.

Hormones cause follicles to develop in ovaries.

Hormones cause the mature follicle and the adjacent ovary wall to rupture and release an egg.

options are day 7, days 7-14, day 14

Answer 3

Based on the steps you've provided and the options available, here are the correct assignments for each step in the menstrual cycle:

1. The follicle reaches maturity.
   ✔ Day 14

2. The blood and tissues lining the uterus are shed.
   (This actually occurs during Days 1-5, but since that option is not available in your list, we'll leave this blank.)

3. If the egg is unfertilized, hormone levels drop and the next cycle begins.
   (This occurs at the end of the cycle around Day 28, so it will also remain blank as there is no option available for it.)

4. Hormones cause follicles to develop in ovaries.
   ✔ Days 7-14

5. Hormones cause the mature follicle and the adjacent ovary wall to rupture and release an egg.
   ✔ Day 14

So, based on your options, the answers would be as follows:

• The follicle reaches maturity. - Day 14
• The blood and tissues lining the uterus are shed. - (No option available)
• If the egg is unfertilized, hormone levels drop and the next cycle begins. - (No option available)
• Hormones cause follicles to develop in ovaries. - Days 7-14
• Hormones cause the mature follicle and the adjacent ovary wall to rupture and release an egg. - Day 14

✔ Days 7-14
The follicle reaches maturity.

✔ Day 1
The blood and tissues lining the uterus are shed.

✔ Days 25-28
If the egg is unfertilized, hormone levels drop and the next cycle begins.

✔ Day 7
Hormones cause follicles to develop in ovaries.

✔ Day 14
Hormones cause the mature follicle and the adjacent ovary wall to rupture and release an egg.

Identify the structures of the male reproductive system using the drop-down menus.

The
produce sperm and hormones.
The
is the male copulatory organ.
The
stores, develops, and transports sperm.

is a combination of sperm and other reproductive fluid.
The
protects the testes.
The
transports sperm from the epididymis to the urethra
The
produce a fluid that nourishes sperm.

the options for each blank is:
testes, scrotum, male part, epididmis, vas deferences, seminal vescicals, semen (EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES)

Answer 5

Based on the information provided and the options available, here are the appropriate terms to fill in each blank for the structures of the male reproductive system:

1. The testes produce sperm and hormones.

2. The male part is the male copulatory organ (usually referred to as the penis).

3. The epididymis stores, develops, and transports sperm.

4. Semen is a combination of sperm and other reproductive fluid.

5. The scrotum protects the testes.

6. The vas deferens transports sperm from the epididymis to the urethra.

7. The seminal vesicles produce a fluid that nourishes sperm.

So, the completed statements are:

1. The testes produce sperm and hormones.
2. The male part is the male copulatory organ.
3. The epididymis stores, develops, and transports sperm.
4. Semen is a combination of sperm and other reproductive fluid.
5. The scrotum protects the testes.
6. The vas deferens transports sperm from the epididymis to the urethra.
7. The seminal vesicles produce a fluid that nourishes sperm.
