Question

Which hypothalamic hormone contributes to the regulation of the male reproductive system? a. luteinizing hormone b. gonadotropin-releasing hormone c. follicle-stimulating hormone d. androgens

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is option b. gonadotropin-releasing hormone.

Explanation:

The GnRH or the gonadotropin-releasing hormone is a releasing hormone that releases from the neurons of the hypothalamus. This releasing hormone is responsible for the secretion of the luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone.

GnRH regulates both gonadotropin hormones, in which, LH (luteinizing hormone) responsible for the regulation of the male reproductive system and FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) responsible for the female reproductive system and sperm production in testes in males.

Thus, the correct answer is option B. gonadotropin-releasing hormone.
