Megan wants to see if mice that are fed food A or B grow at a faster rate. She measures the mass of the mice on day 1, then divides them into two groups based on the type of food they will be given. She feeds each group the same amount of
food at the same time each day. Does Megan have a control group in this experiment?

No, there is no control group.

Explanation:

To test various theories, experiments are usually conducted under a number of different conditions. Several considerations must be established when planning studies to ensure reproducibility, accuracy, and validity of findings.

For example, while controls are kept constant, or unmanipulated. Also, separate independent variables are strictly altered and analyzed - this guarantees validity and may show whether external influences affected the experiment. Here the variable being altered or measured is the food, and the resultant weight is the factor being observed.

"menstrual cycle is a complex cycle that consists of several processes. order of occurrence of steps in menstrual cycle are as follows:

1. high progesterone levels maintain the endometrium lining of the uterus.

2. endometrium lining breaks down and low levels of estrogen stimulate the pituitary to release fsh and lh.

3. fsh and lh stimulates the follicles to develop and the oocyte to produce estrogen.

4. rising estrogen levels suppress fsh production and development of other follicles.

5. a spike in lh causes follicle to rupture.

6. a breakdown of corpus luteum causes progesterone level to drop."
