Solution

The correct option is C pituitary
LH (lutenising hormone) and FSH (follicle stimulating hormone) are secreted by the pituitary gland. LH causes the egg to burst out and flow into the fallopian tubes. FSH directs oestrogen for formation of ovum or eggs in uterus of females and directs testosterone to stimulate sperm sacs to produce sperms in males.
