Read the following passage and answer the next five questions: The reproductive cycle of female primates is called menstrual cycle. Menstrual cycle starts only after attaining sexual maturation (puberty). Generally, during ovulation only one ovum is released per menstrual cycle. The cyclical changes in the ovary and the uterus during menstrual cycle are induced by changes in the levels of pituitary and ovarian hormones. After coitus, sperms are transported to the junction of the isthmus and ampulla, where the sperm fertilises the ovum leading to formation of a diploid zygote.
Match List-I with List-II: Choose the correct answer from the options given below:List-I (Phase of menstrual cycle) List-II (Days of menstrual cycle) (A) Proliferative phase (I) 14th day (B) Menstrual phase (II) 15th–28th/29th days (C) Secretory phase (III) 1st–5th days (D) Ovulatory phase (IV) 5th–13th days
(A) - (IV), (B) - (III), (C) - (II), (D) - (I)
The phases of the menstrual cycle and their corresponding days are:
1. Menstrual phase (B): Occurs during days 1–5 (III).
2. Proliferative phase (A): Lasts from days 5–13, during which the endometrium thickens (IV).
3. Ovulatory phase (D): Occurs on the 14th day when ovulation takes place (I).
4. Secretory phase (C): Occurs from days 15–28, marked by the preparation of the endometrium for implantation (II).
