Place the following labels in order through which an unfertilized ova will pass beginning with the site of production.

1) ovary 2) infundibulum 3) ampulla 4) isthmus 5) fundus 6) body 7) cervical canal 8) opening of cervix 9) vagina 10) vaginal orifice

Rank each of the following events of the ovarian cycle in chronological order using #1 to identify the earliest event.

1) the follicular phase begins 2) FSH stimulates the maturation of follicles 3) Estradiol increases the dominant follicle's sensitivity to the gonadotropins 4) FSH secretion diminishes and nondominant follicles degenerate 5) a surge in LH stimulates the primary oocyte in the dominant follicle to complete meiosis I 6) the secondary oocyte is formed and the dominant follicle ruptures (ovulation) 7) the follicle collapses and bleeds and becomes the corpus luteum 8) the corpus luteum secretes progesterone helping to prepare the uterus for a possible fertilization
