Solution
The correct option is D Lutenising hormone Ovulation
in female is controlled by leuteinising hormone. It is released from anterior
pituitary. In females, LH stimulates the ovulation of the fully matured
Graafian follicles and also maintains the corpus luteum, formed from the
remnants of Graafian follicles after ovulation. The corpus luteum secretes
progesterone and some estrogen under the action of LH. It helps in release of
the ovum from the ovary.
