Solution

The correct option is A FSH
FSH or follicle stimulating hormone is a pituitary hormone.
It induces oogenesis in females by inducing development of Graafian follicle from the primordial follicle.
In males, it induces spermatogenesis by inducing primary spermatocytes to undergo the first division of meiosis, to form secondary spermatocytes.
So, the correct option is 'FSH'.
