Solution

The correct option is C Testosterone
The pituitary gland releases follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and enters the testes which stimulate the Leydig cell that releases the androgen known as the testosterone which leads to the formation of sperms in a process called as spermatogenesis.
So the correct option is 'Testosterone'.
