Question

Fetal ejection reflex in human female is induced by

• A. Differentiation of mammary glands
• B. Pressure exerted by amniotic fluid
• C. Release of oxytocin from pituitary
• D. Fully developed fetus and placenta

Answer 1

The correct option is D Fully developed fetus and placenta

Foetal ejection reflex in human female is induced by fully developed foetus and placeta which causes mild contraction. This induces the release of oxytocin from maternal posterior pituitary ultimately leading to parturation due to strong contractions.

So, the correct option is 'fully developed foetus and placenta'.
