In addition to the hormones estrogen and progesterone, the ovary also produces FSH.
Options
A True
B False
Correct Answer
C
D
Correct Answer

Option B is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

This statement is false. The ovaries produce estrogen and progesterone. FSH (Follicle-Stimulating Hormone) is produced and secreted by the anterior pituitary gland, not the ovaries. FSH acts on the ovaries to stimulate follicle development.

Hint

Where is FSH produced: in the brain (pituitary) or in the ovaries?
