  1. The correct answer is: “The hormone levels increase to prepare a woman’s body to receive a fertilized egg.”

    Explanation: In the menstrual cycle, after ovulation, if a fertilized egg is present, hormone levels (particularly progesterone) rise to prepare the uterine lining for implantation. If the egg is not fertilized, hormone levels eventually drop, leading to menstruation.
