a. where the body prepares for pregnancy

Explanation:

Menstrual cycle has 4 phases:

a. Menstrual phase: Menstrual flow occurs during this phase i.e the uterine endometrium sheds or breaks down. It occurs for around 4-5 days in human females.

b. Follicular phase: Follicular growth occurs in the ovaries, i.e. primary follicle develops into secondary and then tertiary and then finally into mature graffian follicle. Follicular growth is stimulated by FSH hormone. Estrogen level rise during this period and cause the LH surge. Estrogen also repairs the endometrium in uterus.

c. Ovulatory phase: LH surge causes the ovulation i.e. the mature graffian follicle ruptures and secondary oocyte is released.  

d. Luteal phase: The remnants of graffian follicle forms the corpus luteum, which is also called yellow body due to yellow lutein pigment. Progesterone hormone is produced by the corpus leuteum along with small amounts of estrogen. Progesterone produced during luteal phase in ovaries maintains the endometrium in uterus for pregnancy.  

i am positive it is c. condensing but i may be wrong

false because ozone (o3) depletion does not cause global warming, but both of these environmental problems have a common cause: human activities that release pollutants into the atmosphere altering it.

global warming is caused primarily by putting too much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere when coal, oil, and natural gas are burned to generate electricity or to run our cars.
