Solution

The correct option is B Development of corpus luteum : Secretory phase and increased secretion of FSH
In secretory phase, Corpus luteum is developed from the remaining parts of Graafian follicle. Corpus luteum secretes large amounts of progesterone which is essential for maintenance of endometrium which is thickened by estrogen. In this phase, the endometrium further thickens due to estrogen hormone. LH hormone stimulates the corpus luteum to secrete estrogen and progesterone which inhibit the release of FSH and LH. This phase lasts for 14 days. So, secretion of FSH is decreased during this phase. Due to decreased secretion of FSH, development of new follicles during the secretory phase is prevented.

Q. Refer to the given schematic representation of menstrual cycle showing three phases I, II and Ill.

Select the option that correctly matches these phases with the following events.

(i) FSH secreted by the anterior pituitary stimulates the ovarian follicle to secrete estrogen which stimulates the proliferation of the endometrium.

(ii) LH secreted by the anterior pituitary stimulates the development of corpus luteum which secretes progesterone.

(iii) Reduced production of LH from anterior pituitary causes degeneration of corpus luteum, thereby progesterone production is reduced.

Q. Some important events that occur during the menstrual cycle are given below. Arrange the events in a proper sequence and select the correct option.
(i) Proliferation of endometrial wall
(ii) LH surge
(iii) Secretion of estrogen
(iv) Secretion of progesterone
(v) Ovulation
(vi) Growth of corpus luteum
(vi) Degeneration of corpus luteum
(vii) Menstruation

Q. Match column 1 to column 2:

	Column 1		Column 2
a	FSH	1	Prepare endometrium for implantation
b	LH	2	Develops female secondary sexual characters
c	Progesterone	3	Maturation of Graafian follicle
d	Estrogen	4	Development of corpus luteum

In menstrual cycle one ovum is released from either ovaries and the remaining graffian follicle converts into corpus luteum which will secret progesterone for only 7 days but if pregnancy occurs then it secret progesterone for 3 months , in this scenario how the corpus luteum will secret RELAXIN at the parturition at 9 month if it is already died and replaced by placenta?
