Solution

The correct option is C Menopause
The reproductive cycle in the female primates is called menstrual cycle. The first menstruation begins at puberty and is called as menarche. In human females, menstruation is repeated at an interval of about 28/29 days, and the cycle of events starting from one menstruation till the next one is called as the menstrual cycle. In human beings, menstrual cycle ceases around 50 years of age; that is termed as menopause.
