Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Breast size does not influence the ability to secrete milk.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Early cycles are often irregular and may be anovulatory. Regular cycles are usually established within 6 months to 2 years of the menarche. In an average cycle, the flow (menses) occurs every 28 days, plus or minus 5 to 10 days.
