a	FSH	1	Prepare endometrium for implantation
b	LH	2	Develops female secondary sexual characters
c	Progesterone	3	Maturation of Graafian follicle
d	Estrogen	4	Development of corpus luteum

• A. a-3, b-4, c-1, d-2
• B. a-4, b-3, c-2, d-1
• C. a-3, b-4,c-2, d-1
• D. a-3, b-1, c-2, d-4

Answer 1

The correct option is A a-3, b-4, c-1, d-2

FSH (Follicular Stimulating Hormone) : FSH stimulates the growth of ovarian follicles in the ovary before the release of an egg. It helps in the maturation of primary follicles into Graafian follicle.

LH (Luteinising Hormone) : LH is a gonadotropin which is released by the anterior pituitary gland and helps in the process of ovulation in females. It also helps in the development of the corpus luteum.

Progesterone : Progesterone helps in the maintenance of the endometrial lining for the purpose of implantation.

Estrogen : Estrogen is a steroid hormone which helps in the development and regulation of the female reproductive system and secondary sexual characteristics.

Therefore, option a) a-3, b-4, c-1, d-2 is the correct option.
