Which of the following events is not associated with ovulation in human life?

  1. Release of secondary oocyte
  2. LH surge
  3. Decrease in estradiol
  4. Full development of Graafian follicle

Answer

(3) Decrease in estradiol

Solution

As per NCERT, during the follicular phase the growing follicles secrete increasing amounts of estrogens (estradiol); LH and FSH attain a peak in the middle of the cycle (about the 14th day). This rapid secretion of LH (LH surge) induces rupture of the fully developed Graafian follicle and thereby the release of the ovum (secondary oocyte), i.e., ovulation.

∵ The estradiol level is high (at its peak) just before ovulation, which triggers the LH surge.

∴ A decrease in estradiol is not associated with ovulation.
