Solution

The correct option is C plasma membrane
Hormones produce their effects on target tissues by binding to specific proteins called hormone receptors located in the target tissues only. There are two types of receptors - membrane bound receptors and intracellular receptors.

Membrane bound receptors are present on the cell membrane of the target cells. The receptors for the hormone FSH are present on the cell membrane.
