Option A,

both limit movement of substances through the system

The sphincter muscle usually surrounds the openings in the body such as urethra, anus and performs the function of tightly closing the openings. When once the messages are received from the nervous system the sphincter relaxes and releases the material out of the opening during urination of excreting

The same is the function of valves in the circulatory system. They also prohibits the entry of blood from one chamber to other and then to the main circulatory system. The relaxes on receiving a signal from the brain and thus transfer blood from one chamber to the other.

The level of which hormone increases after ovulation?
MArishka [77]

The answer should be C, progesterone.


Progesterone is the hormone which can help maintain the lining of uterus and to further thicken it so that the uterus is prepared for implantation and the development of a baby. The level of progesterone is significantly rose after ovulation.


On the other hand, LH, luteinising hormone, is produced by oestrogen, another female hormone which will drop after ovulation. LH helps stimulate ovulation and prevent the development of other follicles, the origin of eggs, to form yellow body instead. Which yellow body is the one which stimulates the production of progesterone.


Last but not least, I believe D should be testosterone, and it is a male hormone so it will not be found in female normally.


Therefore, your answer should be C, progesterone.
