The correct answer is B.

Women have a tendency to retain water during part of the menstrual cycle because estrogen mimics the action of <u>aldosterone</u>.

Explanation:

The female sex hormones produced by the ovary (estrogens and progesterone) are substances that, through the blood, will carry messages to all the organs of the female genital system (uterus, tubes and ovaries) to achieve their correct function. Aldosterone concentration normally increases at the time of ovulation and remains elevated during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle. Women present during the premenstrual phase, compared to the luteal and follicular phases, an increase in body weight, due to an increase in fluid retention, this because the menstrual cycle modulates the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. High levels of estrogen and progesterone in the mid-luteal phase are associated with a greater increase in adrenal and renal hormones and retention of more volume.

Genetic variation is the changes that occur in the genome of an organisms to help an organism adapt well to the environment, however, they might also be disadvantageous. The variation in DNA sequences are useful in building a tree of life because DNA sequences are similar in closely related organisms and less similar in less closely related organisms.

<h3>What is a radioactive decay?</h3>

A radioactive decay can be defined as a radioactive process in which an unstable atomic nucleus undergoes a spontaneous transformation into one or more different atomic nuclei and simultaneously emits radiation, accompanied with a loss of energy.

<h3>The types of radioactive decay.</h3>

In Science, there are three main types of radioactive decay and these include the following:

  • Alpha decay
  • Beta decay
  • Gamma decay

Based on the information provided in the table (see attachment), we can reasonably infer and logically deduce that the value which is being measured in the columns labeled "Fraction remaining" and "Percentage remaining" is the amount of material that has not decayed.
