Answer

  1. Assertion is true, but reason is false.

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Explanation:

At about the 14 day of the menstrual cycle, the distended mature graafian follicle ruptures and the ovum or secondary oocyte is extruded into the abdominal cavity. This is the process of ovulation, which is triggered by a surge in LH secretion. The follicle that ruptures at the time of ovulation promptly fills with blood, forming a corpus haemorrhagicium. The granulosa cell and Thea cells of the follicle lining promptly begins to proliferate and the clotted blood is rapidly replaced with yellowish, lipid rich in luteal cells forming the corpus luteum. This initiates the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle, during which the luteal cells secretes estrogen and progesterone. Progesterone is a steroid hormone that has functions in preparing the uterus for pregnancy. If pregnancy occurs, the corpus luteum persists and if there is no pregnancy the corpus luteum begins to degenerate about 4 days before the next menses (24th day of the cycle) and is eventually replaced by scar tissue, forming a corpus albicans.
