Why is the menstrual cycle an important adaptation for reproduction in humans?

1 answer:

5 0

The menstrual cycle is practically controlled by a system of hormones that is necessary for reproduction, and when the hormone reaches a heightened level, something called estradiol is made, then the stimulation of the ovaries by a luteinizing hormone.

Once that hormone begins developing, the ovaries make an egg that quickly becomes an ovum. The ovary then releases one egg or two during ovulation. The endometrium (the part that sheds its own cells for the menstruation) peaks after ovulation and changes the lining of the uterus to prepare for the hectic process of pregnancy and child labor.

Hope that was helpful.

Difference: Carbon cycle requires life, and the water cycle just requires sunlight. So former would continue to occur without life, but the latter would not.

Similarity: They both use Plants as an Integral component. The water cycle uses plants for uptake of water and transpiration from the surface whereas carbon is used in photosynthesis and also form the body of the plant (through various organic molecules)
