Solution
The correct option is A LH
Pituitary or hypophysis is an endocrine gland. It has two lobes - anterior and posterior. Anterior pituitary secretes hormones like Adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ADH ), luteinizing hormone, follicle stimulating hormone, thyroid stimulating hormone, growth hormone, prolactin. LH stimulates Leydig cells in the testis to produce testosterone. It also triggers ovulation by acting upon corpus luteum, Thus, LH is known as Interstitial Cell Stimulating Hormones ( ICHS ).Hence, the correct option is A.
