Question 8 • *GV 2018 - P.E. Health Science Concepts - PE361

Menstruation occurs when:

Answer
A
an unfertilized egg is expelled from the body
B
a fertilized egg is nonviable and is expelled from the body
C
a fertilized egg moves to the uterus.
D
the lining of the uterus is shed because an ovum has not been fertilized

Explanation

Menstruation occurs when an egg has not been fertilized and the thickened uterine lining is shed through the vagina. Choice D correctly describes the shedding of the uterine lining. An unfertilized egg may leave the body during menstruation, but its release alone is not what defines menstruation.
