What event occurs following the luteinizing hormone (LH) surge during the female monthly cycle?
lesantik [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

During the follicular phase (first half of female cycle), follicles in the ovary begin developing under the<u> influence of </u><u>FSH.</u> <em>The follicle that acquires more FSH receptors will become </em><em>dominant</em> and will produce more estrogen and inhibin hormone than the others. Inhibin will reduce FSH level and as a result the other follicles will fail to keep growing. At this stage the dominant follicle will become FSH independent.

Estrogen produced by the dominant follicle will stimulate LH secretion. After approximately 24-36 hours from when LH reaches its peak level, the dominant follicle releases an ovocyte. <em>This event is called ovulation.</em>

uysha [10]

Answer:

10 per 1,000.

Explanation:

The death rate and birth rate affects the population dynamics of the particular area. The birth rate increases  the population size whereas the death rate decreases the population size.

The death rate of a population can be calculated by the following formula:

Crude death rate = total death/ total population

Here, total death = 1,000 and total population = 100,000.

Crude death rate = 1,000/ 100,000 = 0.01 or  10 per 1,000.

Thus, the correct answer is option (c).

Micheal might be suffering from diabetes insipidus.

Diabetes insipidus

Diabetes insipidus is a condition in which the affected person has the urge to pee a lot and feels thirsty all the time. Even though it is not directly related to diabetes, it is named as such because the affected person has symptoms similar to diabetes. The two main symptoms are polydipsia and polyuria.

Cause of Diabetes insipidus

Diabetes insipidus is caused by the lack of production of antidiuretic hormone (ADH). ADH is produced by the hypothalamus which then gets stored in the pituitary gland. When the person was subjected to surgery to remove the entire mass of cancer cells in the pituitary gland, the ability of the gland to store ADH could have been lost.

The ADH allows the retention of water by concentrating the urine. In a person with diabetes insipidus, the production of AHD is affected, and in very rare cases the response by the kidneys to ADH is reduced which also reduces the water reabsorption and increases urine volume.
