Solution

Correct option: (c) Endometrium.​
  • When the egg is unfertilized, it degenerates and the inner lining of the uterus breaks and the arteries also rupture.​
  • This flows out through the vagina in the form of blood and is known as menstruation.​
  • Hence, the endometrial lining, which is the inner lining of the uterus degenerates during menstruation.​
