question 7

Explanation:

The menstrual cycle consists of four distinct core stages: menstruation (shedding of uterine lining), follicular phase (egg maturation in ovaries), ovulation (release of a mature egg), and luteal phase (preparation of uterus for implantation). Fertilization is not a stage of the menstrual cycle, and the other options undercount or misidentify the stages.

Answer:

Four: menstruation, follicular phase, ovulation, and luteal phase
