Textbook Question
Chapter 26, Problem 19CYR
Mark the following statements about the uterine cycle as true or false. If a statement is false, correct it to make a true statement.
a. During the proliferative phase, the endometrium prepares for the implantation of the conceptus by enlarging the endometrial glands and secreting glycogen into the uterine cavity.
b. During the secretory phase, the endometrium generates a new stratum functionalis.
c. During the menstrual phase, the uterus sheds the stratum basalis of the endometrium, which results in the discharge of blood and tissue from the vagina.
