Why is the menstrual cycle an important adaptation for reproduction in humans?
raketka [301]
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.

Imagine that scientists have discovered an industrial pollutant that modifies the structure of a cell cycle checkpoint protein s
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Carcinogenic

Explanation:

A carcinogenic substance is able to modify or damage the genome in a way which promotes the formation of cancerous cells. Cell cycle checkpoint proteins are very crucial for the progression of normal cell cycle. They check for any anomaly in their designated step and halt the process if it is detected. Repair mechanism is activated and cell cycle does not progress till the damage has been repaired.

Here, the pollutant alters the structure of these proteins such that they lose their function. They are not be able to stop cell cycle from progressing even if there is some damage in the genome. The cell divides and gives rise to more damaged cells. Eventually these cells lose their normal function and just keep dividing due to which their division rate becomes double of the normal rate. It can ultimately give rise to cancer which is why the chemical is carcinogenic.
