The correct answer is Option (2): D-E-C-A-B

Menstrual cycle starts with menstrual flow followed by follicular phase. During follicular phase levels of gonadotropins (LH and FSH) increase and estrogen levels also increase. This lead to rapid secretion of LH and LH surge is attained and hence ovulation takes place. After ovulation remains of Graafian follicle turns into Corpus luteum which secretes large amounts of progesterone.

The correct sequence of events in the female reproductive cycle is:

D. Secretion of FSH (initiates the growth of ovarian follicle and oogenesis)

E. Growth of ovarian follicle and oogenesis (under the influence of FSH)

C. Sudden increase in level of LH (triggers ovulation)

A. Ovulation (release of the matured egg from the ovary)

B. Growth of corpus luteum (develops from the ruptured follicle after ovulation)

Therefore, the correct sequence of events in the female reproductive cycle is: D, E, C, A, B.
