Joel notices that there is not much difference between low and high tide. what is happening?
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

This is the spring tide: the highest (and lowest) tide. Spring tides are not named for the season. This is spring in the sense of jump, burst forth, rise. So spring tides bring the most extreme high and low tides every month, and they always happen – every month – around full and new moon.

What is the site of fsh and lh stimulation after ovulation?
zhenek [66]
The phase after ovulation (release of an egg) is called luteal phase. The stimulating follicle hormone (fsh) and luteinizing hormone (lh) are produced in the pituitary.
The FSH promotes the growth of an egg in the follicle while the LH facilitates its release from the follicle. Once the egg is released, the two hormones decrease, resulting in the rise of estrogen and progesterone.
