Solution
The correct option is C Proliferative
The menstrual cycle is divided into four phases, namely menstrual phase (day 1 to 5), proliferative phase (day 1 to 13), ovulation phase (day 14) and luteal phase (day 15 to 28). During menstrual phase, the uterus sheds its inner lining that exits the body in the form of menstrual fluid. During proliferative phase, eggs grow in the ovaries and single egg matures into a follicle. Simultaneously endometrium develops in the uterus. Proliferative phase ends when ovulation occurs. During ovulation phase, egg is released from the ovary. During luteal phase, the egg released remains in the Fallopian tube for 24 hours. If fertilization does not occur, egg disintegrate and menstrual phase of next cycle begins. Thus, the correct answer is option C.
