The right answer is D.

Intermolecular forces lead to the assembly of microscopic systems. They are responsible for the cohesion of matter in most macroscopic phases. These are weak forces compared to covalent bond strengths. They do not modify the nature of the molecular species and only influence their mode of assembly. The most well-known intermolecular bonds are the Van der Waals bond and the hydrogen bond.

The greater the intermolecular forces, the more the aspect of the element will tend to be more condensed (gas <liquid <solid).

How do the hormones of the endocrine system act as a feedback mechanism for the menstrual cycle?
mezya [45]

In positive feedback, rising levels of hormones feedback to increase hormone production. During most of the menstrual cycle, estrogen and progesterone provide negative feedback to the hypothalamus and pituitary gland. This keeps their levels more or less constant.

In negative feedback, rising levels of hormones feedback to the hypothalamus and pituitary gland to decrease the production of the hormones. In positive feedback, rising levels of hormones feedback to increase hormone production. During most of the menstrual cycle, estrogen and progesterone provide negative feedback to the hypothalamus and pituitary gland. This keeps their levels more or less constant. During days 12–14, however, estrogen provides positive feedback to the hypothalamus and pituitary gland. This causes a rapid rise in the production of estrogen by the ovaries and leads to ovulation.
