Solution

The correct option is B LH, FSH and a growth hormone
Gn-RH released by the hypothalamus stimulates the secretion of both follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) from the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland. They have a major role in gametogenesis. Growth hormone (GH), also called somatotropin or human growth hormone, secreted by the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland. It stimulates the growth of essentially all tissues of the body, including bone.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
