Solution

The correct option is B 15th day
Both LH and FSH attain a peak level
in the middle of cycle (about 14th day). Rapid secretion of LH leading to
its maximum level during the mid-cycle called LH surge induces rupture
of Graafian follicle and thereby the release of ovum (ovulation). The most likely out of the options would be 15th day.
