**Explanation of Graph**
There is a partial graph labeled “Phases of the Ovarian Cycle” at the bottom part of the image. The graph is divided into three primary sections: Follicular Phase, Ovulation, and Luteal Phase. The graph likely indicates hormonal changes and possibly body temperature variations corresponding to each phase of the cycle.
- **Follicular Phase:** Preceding ovulation, usually characterized by rising hormone levels.
- **Ovulation:** Marked with an upward arrow, indicating a significant event or change. This corresponds to the release of the egg.
- **Luteal Phase:** Follows ovulation, might show changes indicative of body preparation following ovulation.
This diagram likely serves to explain cyclical hormonal changes which can correlate with body temperature fluctuations mentioned in questions (c) and (d).
