Solution

The correct option is B FSH – Stimulates spermatogenesis
GH or growth hormone regulates overall growth of body. FSH is follicle stimulating hormone. It stimulates growth of ovarian follicles and their secretion of oestrogens in female,and spermatogenesis (formation of sperm) in the male. LH is responsible for ovulation. Oxytocin helps in childbirth and milk ejection. Relaxin stimulates uterine contraction during childbirth. Prolactin is responsible for lactation.
