Question #10
Three key hormones in regulating the female reproductive system are estrogen, progesterone and testosterone. Choose each change or event to the hormone that is responsible. Estrogen
A.   Triggers the endometrium to secrete nutrients Produced by the corpus luteum Drop in level triggers menstruation
B.   Helps maintain muscle mass
C.   Controlled by positive and negative feedback Secreted by the developing follicle Causes endometrium to build up Levels peak during the follicular phase
Question #11

C.   Helps maintain muscle mass
Question #13
Place the events in order that would lead to changes in the endometrium. Start with secretion of GnRH by the hypothalamus.
A.   hypothalamus secretes GnRH Gonadotropins are released. Pituitary detects an increase in the hormone signal. Uterus detects an increase in the hormone signal. Ovaries detect an increase in the hormone signal. Estrogen production increases. Endometrium thickens.
B.   hypothalamus secretes GnRH Gonadotropins are released. Ovaries detect an increase in the hormone signal. Pituitary detects an increase in the hormone signal. Estrogen production increases. Endometrium thickens. Uterus detects an increase in the hormone signal.
