Solution
The correct option is B Leutenizing hormone
Ovulation is the process of release of an ovum from the ovary. It occurs in the middle of menstrual cycle which is associated with the pituitary hormones level.
In the middle of menstrual cycle secretion of LH (leutenizing hormone) becomes high it is called LH surge which induces rupturing of the mature follicle and causes the release of an ovum (ovulation).
