Solution
The correct option is C Stimulation of corpus luteum to produce progesterone
Luteinising hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) are secreted by the anterior pituitary under the influence of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) secreted by the hypothalamus.
LH stimulates the corpus luteum to produce progesterone. LH helps control the menstrual cycle. It also triggers the release of secondary oocyte from the ovary.
FSH stimulates the growth and development of ovarian follicles.
Estrogen hormone maintains the endometrium of the uterus which is essential for the implantation of the embryo.
