| LIST-I | LIST-II |
|---|---|
| Hormones | Organs |
| A. Testosterone | I. Ovary |
| B. Progesterone | II. Testis |
| C. Estrogen | III. Corpus luteum |
| D. Gonadotropin | IV. Pituitary |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → A-II, B-III, C-I, D-IV
(A) Testosterone — this matches (II) Testis. The Leydig cells in the spaces between the seminiferous tubules of the testis make androgens. Testosterone is the main one.
(B) Progesterone — this matches (III) Corpus luteum. After ovulation, the empty Graafian follicle becomes the corpus luteum. It makes large amounts of progesterone, which keeps the endometrium ready for implantation.
(C) Estrogen — this matches (I) Ovary. The growing follicles of the ovary make estrogens during the follicular phase of the cycle.
(D) Gonadotropin — this matches (IV) Pituitary. The anterior pituitary makes the gonadotropins, LH and FSH. They control the working of the testis and the ovary.
