Explain why it makes sense that the levels of estrogen and progesterone are low in blood of a female during menstruation
Art [367]

Answer:

At the beginning of the follicular phase, the lining of the uterus (endometrium) is thick with fluids and nutrients designed to nourish an embryo. If no egg has been fertilized, estrogen and progesterone levels are low. As a result, the top layers of the endometrium are shed, and menstrual bleeding occurs.

Which is an example of how the peripheral nervous system helps the body maintain its internal environment?
Lapatulllka [165]
The PNS helps to maintain internal balance, or "homeostasis," by the Parasympathetic division of the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS). Sometimes referred to as the "rest and digest" system, the Parasympathetics keep our internal activities regular throughout the day and night, such as a steady heart rate, slow breathing, digestion of food, filtration of blood, and excretion of wastes.
