• C. a- iv, b- iii, c- ii, d- i
• D. a- i, b- ii, c- iii, d- iv

Answer 1

The correct option is A a- v, b- iv, c- i, d- ii

Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) promotes development and maturation of primary follicle into graffian follicle in females. LH surge between 12 to 14 days of cycle stimulates rupture of Graafian follicle followed by absorption of clot and other changes to transforms it into corpus luteum. Mature follicles release progesterone that stimulates uterine endometrium thickening to prepare it for implantation. Estrogen is secreted by developing follicles and stimulates development of female secondary sexual characters at puberty. Correct answer is A.
