The hormone levels during the menstrual cycle are shown below. what would happen if the hormone levels did not have their peak just before day 14? a. the egg would attach to the uterus. b. eggs would start to mature in the ovary. c. the egg would be fertilized. d. th ovary would not release an egg.

The correct answer is option D, that is, the ovary would not release an egg.

During the initial 14 days of the menstrual cycle, an egg develops in a woman's ovaries. A hormone known as follicle stimulating hormone instigates this procedure. The ovaries discharge an egg at the middle of each menstrual cycle. Generally, only a solitary oocyte from one ovary is discharged at the time of each menstrual cycle.

The FSH and the LH are the hormones discharged from the brain, while the progesterone and estrogen are discharged by the ovarian follicle cell. Then, near or on the 14th day, the upsurge in LH makes the egg to get popped out of the ovary.

Hence, if the mentioned hormone does not exhibit a peak prior to the 14th day, the egg would not get discharged by the ovary.
