Match each function below to the hormone it describes.
Luteninzing hormone, Estrogen, Follicle-stimulating hormone, Gonadotropin releasing hormone,
Oxytocin, and Testosterone.
- Stimulates production of FSH and LH.
- Sharp rise in levels of this hormone triggers ovulation and formation of the corpus luteum.
- Stimulates release of androgen-binding protein by the sustentacular (nurse) cells.
- Trigger for spermatogenesis.
2-
For each characteristic below, indicate whether it describes spermatogenesis, oogenesis, or both.
- Gametes are formed by meiosis. Both
- Produces four functional gametes from each precursor cell.
- Luteinizing hormone is important for gamete maturation.
- Gamete maturation is not complete until fertilization.
- Gamete precursor arrests in prophase I until puberty.
- Produces gametes with 23 chromosomes.
- Mature, functional gamete loses excess cytoplasm.
- Supported by nurse (sustentacular) cells.

12- Match each hormone to its role in pregnancy and/or lactation.
Triggers the release of milk to the nipple during breastfeeding, Directly stimulates myometrium
to contract during labor, Increases flexibility of the pelvis and dilates the cervix, Stimulates
mammary gland development, and Maintains corpus luteum.
- Human Chorionic Gonadotropin:
- Oxytocin:
- Prolactin:
- Relaxin: I.
