Solution
The correct option is C Corpus luteum
During the follicular phase of a womans cycle, several follicles develop under the influence of follicle stimulating hormone. Each follicle contains an egg. In a typical cycle only one egg will become mature enough for ovulation. When a woman ovulates the egg will burst from the follicle. Then what is left of the follicle will become the corpus luteum. The corpus luteum produces progesterone until the placenta begins to take over progesterone production around ten weeks gestation.
