Solution

The correct option is A Corpus luteum
The Graafian follicle is the structure that contains the developing egg (oocyte) which is floating in the follicular fluid. After ovulation, the Graafian follicle turns yellow due to the action of LH (luteinizing hormone) and becomes corpus luteum which secretes progesterone.
So the correct option is 'Corpus luteum.'
