Dear student

Please refer the solution below for the said query

a) A = Estrogen and B = Progesterone
b) Ovaries
c) The A peaks before B because the release of gonadotropins (LH and FSH) increases during follicular phase. This causes follicular growth and the growing follicles produce oestrogen.
d) 
Functions of oestrogen:
  • Growth and functioning of the female secondary sex organs
  • Development of growing follicles and mammary glands
  • Regulates female secondary sex characters (Examples − high pitch voice)
  •  
  • Functions of progesterone:
  • Preparing the uterus for implantation
  • Acts on mammary glands and stimulates formation of alveoli-like structures storing milk
e) In case implantation occurs, the levels of progesterone continues to be high.


Hope this information clears your doubt about the topic.

Regards
