The answer is the second one: the time from the onset of irregular menstrual cycles to cessation of those cycles.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Decrease in the sexual drive: This is not specific to perimenopause. While some women may experience changes in sexual drive during perimenopause, it is not the defining characteristic of this phase.

  2. Time from the onset of irregular menstrual cycles to cessation of those cycles: This is the correct definition of perimenopause. It refers to the transitional period leading up to menopause, characterized by changes in menstrual cycle regularity and other symptoms.

  3. Cessation of menstruation: This defines menopause, not perimenopause. Menopause is the point at which a woman has not had a menstrual period for 12 consecutive months.

  4. PMS (Premenstrual Syndrome): PMS refers to a set of symptoms that occur before the onset of menstruation, not related to the perimenopausal phase.

  5. Inability to have sexual intercourse: This is not related to perimenopause. While some women may experience vaginal dryness or discomfort during perimenopause, it does not define the phase itself.

Summary: Perimenopause is the period from the onset of irregular menstrual cycles to the cessation of those cycles, marking the transition to menopause.

What two types of graphs are most common when the categories are qualitative data? Describe the construction of each. Select the two choices below that correctly answer the question above. A. In a frequency table, each category corresponds to a wedge of a circle. The size of each wedge is proportional to the relative frequency of the category it represents B. A frequency table has two columns. The first column lists all of the categories of data. The second column lists the frequency of each category. C. In a pie chart, each category corresponds to a wedge of a circle. The size of each wedge is proportional to the relative frequency of the category it represents. D. In a bar graph, the categories are clearly indicated along the horizontal axis. Over each category is a rectangle whose height indicates the frequency or relative frequency of the category N the vertical axis clearly indicate the scale. E. In a pie chart, the categories are clearly indicated along the horizontal axis. Over each category is a rectangle whose height indicates the frequency or relative frequency of the category Nu the vertical axis clearly indicate the scale. F.
