Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Menarche occurs about 2 to 2.5 years after breast development. Asking the mother if her daughter knows what to expect does not answer the mother's question.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Prolactin is secreted by the anterior pituitary gland. Secretion of prolactin is suppressed by estrogen and progesterone produced by the placenta. When the placenta separates after birth, the effects of the estrogen and progesterone stop and milk is produced with infant suckling. Luteinizing hormone is present in the ovulatory cycle.
