Solution
The correct option is D Sertoli cells
FSH is released from anterior pituitary. FSH (follicle stimulating hormone) acts on Sertoli cells of testis and this stimulates the release of factors that help in the process of spermiogenesis. FSH stimulates Sertoli cells of testes to secrete an androgen binding protein that helps to concentrate testosterone in the seminiferous tubules.
LH from anterior pituitary acts primarily on Leydig cells.
Male germ cells undergo division to produce sperms. Studies show that sperms, if treated with FSH, can show improved sperm quality so can be used in certain cases to help improve sperm quality of infertile males.
