Directions: Identify what phase of menstrual cycle is described in each number. 1. The lining of the uterus becomes thin after menstruation. An egg in the ovary continues to mature. Just before the mid-cycle, the mature egg moves to the surface of the ovary. 2. The lining of the uterus called endometrium becomes thicker in preparation for implantation of the fertilized egg. If fertilization does not take place, menstruation happens. The next cycle is then about to begin. 3. This occurs when fertilization does not take place. The uterine lining begins to break down and bleeding results. Menstrual fluid contains blood cells and mucus flow and lasts from 3 to 7 days. 4. The mature egg is released and travels to the fallopian tube and toward the uterus.
