- prepares the endometrium for the potential of pregnancy after ovulation. It triggers the lining to thicken to accept a fertilized egg. It also prohibits the muscle contractions in the uterus that would cause the body to reject an egg.

9).-OVARIES

-Estrogens, in females, are produced primarily by the ovaries, and during pregnancy, the placenta. Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) stimulates the ovarian production of estrogens by the granulosa cells of the ovarian follicles and corpora lutea.

10).-B-INSULIN

11).-FSH

-FSH and LH affect reproductive structures to cause the formation of sperm and the preparation of eggs for release and possible fertilization.

12).-III

13).-D

14).-A

15).-C : FSH -Testosterone is indispensable for sperm production, however both testosterone and Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) are needed for optimal testicular development and maximal sperm production.
