1. Describe the events that occur in the ovaries as a rat goes through the estrus cycle. Relate these changes to the cyclic changes of the vaginal epithelium.
2. Trace the course of events from the release of ACh by a motor neuron to the binding of myosin cross-bridges to actin. of the nerve that innervates the muscle. Propose an explanation for these results.
3. What would a vaginal smear performed on an ovariectomized rat (one with its ovaries removed) look like? Explain.

Which hormones are present in largest concentration just before ovulation? During which part of the menstrual cycle is the endometrium most prepared to receive an embryo? Which hormones stimulate thickening of the endometrium? Gonadotropic hormones and ovarian hormones regulate the monthly sequence of events that take place within the ovary and uterus. The preovulatory phase begins with menstruation; the postovulatory phase begins after ovulation. Figure 50-14 Endocrine regulation of the menstrual cycle When fertilization does not occur, the menstrual cycle repeats about every 28 days. Note the changes in hormone concentrations that regulate the menstrual cycle.
