called
(A) luteal phase and lasts for about 6 days
(B) follicular phase and lasts for about 6 days
(C) luteal phase and lasts for about 13 days
(D) follicular phase and lasts for about 13 days.
Solution:(Correct Answer:C)
(c) : After ovulation which occurs in the middle of menstrual
cycle, empty Graafian follicle continues growth under the
influence of LH. The follicular cells are converted into lutein
cells by deposition of yellowish lipid inclusions. The
phenomenon is called luteinization. The ruptured Graafian
follicle is now called corpus luteum. It secretes hormones,
mainly progesterone and small quantity of estrogen. Both
LH and progesterone help in further growth and thickening
of endometrium. The major change is that the endometrial
glands become secretory. The uterine wall becomes ready
for nourishing and anchoring blastocyst if fertilization takes
place. Hence, this phase of menstrual cycle is called luteal or
secretory phase. The phase lasts for about 13 days i.e.,
15 − 28 days of 28 days menstrual cycle.
