Solution
The correct option is C Uterus inner wall layer and unfertilised egg will shed off If the egg is fertilised by a sperm as it travels down the Fallopian tube, then pregnancy occurs.
But if the egg does not because fertilised, then the lining of the uterus (endometrium) is shed during ht mensuration.
Hence, the uterus inner wall and unfertilised egg will shed off if no fertilisation occurs.
