Purpose:______________________________________________________________________________
__________________________________________________________
Observation Questions
1. Between days 25 and 12 (not 12 to 25) of the menstrual cycle, what happens to the amount of FSH
produced by the body of an average human female?
______________________________________________________________________________________
__________________________________________________________
2. What happens to the follicle between days 25 and 12 of the menstrual cycle?
______________________________________________________________________________________
__________________________________________________________
3. During which days of the menstrual cycle is the level of FSH at its lowest
in the blood stream?
________________________________________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________________________
__________________________________________________________
4. About how long is the follicle phase of the menstrual cycle?
______________________________________________________________________________________
__________________________________________________________
5. On which day of the menstrual cycle is the production of LH the greatest?
________________________________________________________________________
6. What event occurs immediately after this increased production of LH?
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
7. What happens to the corpus luteum during days 15 thorugh 24 of the
menstrual cycle?
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
8.a. During which days of the menstrual cycle is the production of LH the
lowest?
________________________________________________________________________
8.b. What is happening to the corpus luteum at this time?
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
9.a. What happens to the amount of estrogen produced by the body during days
6 to 12 of the menstrual cycle? ______________________________________________
9.b. What is occurring to the uterus during this time?
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
10.a. What happens to the amount of progesterone produced by the body during
days 6 to 12 of the menstrual cycle?
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
10.b. What is occurring to the uterus during this time?
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
11.a During which days of the menstrual cycle are the levels of both estrogen
and progesterone at their lowest?_____________________________________________
12. What event is occurring at this time? _______________________________________
Analysis and conclusions
1. How is the name follicle stimulating hormone appropriate to its function?
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
2. How is the name luteinizing hormone appropriate for its function?
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
3. Based on your observations, do you think estrogen and progesterone both
cause similar changes in the uterus? Explain your answer
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
4. What events occur during the follicle phase of the menstrual cycle?
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
5. What events occur during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle?
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
Critical thinking and Application
1. What are the events described in this investigation referred to as a cycle?
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
2. The word "menstrual" comes from the Latin word mensis, meaning "month".
How is the name appropriate for this cycle of the human female reproductive
system?
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
3. If a female did not produce sufficient quantities of FSH and LH, how would
her ability to have children be affected?
________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
4. What standards did you use in this lab?
