The hormone responsible for inducing spermatogenesis and oogenesis is
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is D FSH
- Gonadotrophin regulating hormone (GnRH) secreted by the hypothalamus stimulates the release of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) in male.
- FSH enters the testes stimulating the Sertoli cells which help to nourish the sperm cells that the testes produce to begin the process of spermatogenesis. Similarly in females, GnRH secreted by the hypothalamus stimulates the release of FSH, which stimulates the growth of egg cells, and LH, which signals for the ovulation of an egg from its follicle.
