Solution

The correct option is C Human chorionic gonadotropin
The presence of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine confirms pregnancy. This hormone is produced by the placenta shortly after the embryo attaches to the uterine lining and builds up rapidly in the female body in the first few days of pregnancy. Hence, option C is correct.
