Solution

The correct option is B 14th day
Rapid secretion of LH i.e. luteinising hormone usually occurs during the mid-cycle. This is called LH surge which usually is observed on the 14th day of the 28-day menstrual cycle.
LH surge induces ovulation. Rupture of Graafian follicle and release of secondary oocyte is called ovulation.
