At the base of each food chain, there are producers, namely autotrophic organisms, ie capable of organizing the chemical compounds in the soil (or water), so as to independently produce food reserves (sugars, starch). This process can be achieved by using the energy provided by photosynthesis. The producers are the only living things that can convert solar energy (light energy + thermal energy) into chemical energy (binding energy).

What hormone released by the highlighted structures inhibits the secretion of FSH only?
soldi70 [24.7K]

Inhibin inhibits the secretion of FSH only.

<h3>What is the role of inhibin?</h3>
  • Inhibin is a protein mainly produced by the gonads.
  • In men it is produced by the Sertoli cells and it is produced by the granulose cells in women.
  • It negatively regulates the secretion of Follicle Stimulating hormone (FSH) from the pituitary gland.
  • FSH itself induces the production of inhibin for negative feedback.
  • Pituitary is a pea shaped endocrine gland present at the base of the brain. It is the major endocrine gland and controls growth, development and functions of other endocrine glands.
  • Hormone activin has opposite effect to inhibin. It enhances FSH biosynthesis and secretion.
