Solution

The correct option is B FSH and LH
Ovulation is the process by which the Graafian follicle ruptures and releases the secondary oocyte ovarian cells. It occurs about midway through the menstrual cycle. During ovulation, the estrogen levels reach its peak, which causes a surge in the levels of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). This results in the rupture of the ovarian follicles and causing the oocyte to be released from the ovary via oviduct.
So, the correct answer is option B.
