Solution

The correct option is D

Both B & C


Oestrogen levels peak towards the end of the follicular phase. This causes a surge in the levels of luteinising hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). This results in the rupture of the ovarian follicles, causing the oocyte to be released from the ovary.
