The typical female's ovarian and uterine (menstrual) cycles are both approximately 28 days, although there can be some variation between individuals. Options A, D, and E do not accurately reflect the typical length of these cycles. Option B may be a common misconception, as some people may believe that the menstrual cycle is the same length as the ovulatory cycle, but in fact the menstrual cycle starts on the first day of bleeding and can last up to 7 days, while the ovulatory cycle is typically around 14 days.
