	The menstrual cycle in all women is a 28 day reproductive cycle
	Ovulation always occurs at the midpoint of the menstrual cycle
	The menstrual cycle's main function is to regularly replace the lining of the uterus
	A high body temperature indicates ovulation is occurring
	The menstrual cycle is an endocrine cycle regulating reproductive physiological changes

	zygote, blastomeres, morula, blastocyst
	oocyte, zygote, morula, blastocyst
	zygote, conceptus, blastocyst
	polar bodies, zygote, conceptus, blastocyst

	bacterial and viral infections can sometimes not affect development
	a specific environmental insult will result in a specific abnormal development outcome
	the first trimester is the most sensitive period to environmental insults
	some prescription drugs can lead to abnormal development outcomes
	rubella virus infection during pregnancy has serious abnormal development outcomes
