| Statement A: | The ovulatory phase is followed by luteal phase during which the remaining parts of the Graffian follicle transforms into the corpus luteum |

Match the following columns and select the correct option:
| Column-I | Column-II | ||
| (a) | Ovary | (i) | Human chorionic gonadotropin |
| (b) | Placenta | (ii) | Estrogen & Progesterone |
| (c) | Corpus luteum | (iii) | Androgens |
| (d) | Leydig cells | (iv) | Progesterone only |
| Options: | (a) | (b) | (c) | (d) |
| 1. | (iv) | (iii) | (ii) | (i) |
| 2. | (i) | (ii) | (iii) | (iv) |

| 4. | (ii) | (i) | (iv) | (iii) |
| Assertion(A): | Corpus luteum are cells produced by Graafian follicle after ovulation. |
| Reason(R): | It secretes estrogen, which is necessary to maintain pregnancy. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is true but (R) is false. |
| 4. | Both (A) and (R) are false. |
| Assertion(A): | The endometrium of a 35 years old pregnant lady fails to degenerate. |
| Reason(R): | Progesterone concentration increases due to fertilisation. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is true but (R) is false. |
| 4. | Both (A) and (R) are false. |
| Assertion(A): | A pregnant woman cannot concieve again during pregnancy. |
| Reason(R): | Corpus luteum secretes high level of progesterone and estrogen during pregnancy which inhibits the secretion of gonadotropins and thereby prevent ovulation. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |

| 4. | Both (A) and (R) are false. |
| Assertion(A): | Menstrual cycle stops during pregnancy. |
| Reason(R): | Stoppage of menstrual cycle confirms pregnancy.a |
