- Given below are few statements with reference to the major events in the menstrual cycle of a human female:
- During the follicular phase, the primary follicles grow to become a Graafian follicle.
- Gonadotropins FSH and progesterone stimulate follicular development during the follicular phase.
- LH surge induces rupture of Graafian follicle thereby releasing the corpus luteum.
- Progesterone released by corpus luteum is essential for maintenance of endometrium.
- Both LH and progesterone attain a peak level in the middle of the cycle.

- The plates of a parallel plate capacitor are separated by d. Two slabs of different dielectric constant \(K_1\) and \(K_2\) with thickness \(d/2\) and \(d/2\) respectively are inserted in the capacitor. Due to this, the capacitance becomes two times larger than when there is nothing between the plates. If \(K_1 = 1.25 K_2\), the value of \(K_2\) is :
