Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Menstruation is followed by the follicular phase, not luteal. Ovulation marks the beginning of the secretory phase. The endometrium disintegrates during the ischemic phase.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The myometrium, not the epithelial layer, is the thick, muscular middle layer. It is thickest at the fundus, apparently to facilitate birth. The endometrium is composed of a functional layer (super-ficial compact layer and spongy middle layer) and a basal layer. The perimetrium is the outer lay-er.
