Inhibin hormone released by the highlighted structure inhibits the secretion of FSH only.
<h3>What is inhibin hormone?</h3>
- A protein called inhibin is secreted by the granulosa cells in women and the Sertoli cells in men.
- It decreases the amount of LH-releasing hormone in the hypothalamus and prevents the pituitary gland from producing and releasing follicle-stimulating hormone.
- Inhibin is a factor in the feedback control of FSH secretion in both males and females going through puberty.
- Follistatin suppresses FSH-subunit expression like inhibin, whereas activin enhances it, which in turn influences FSH production and secretion.
- Inhibin A is secreted by the corpora lutea and dominant ovarian follicles in women, which helps to explain why levels are so high during the late follicular and luteal stages.
- During the late luteal and early follicular phases of the menstrual cycle, inhibin B is reciprocally raised.

Question: Which hormone released by the highlighted structure inhibits the secretion of FSH only?
Pillow Talkin by Lil Dicky explains it all
This information is not enough to tell which of the traits-blood group A or O is dominant.
It is known that blood groups A and B are codominant, which means both will express if found together in a heterozygote. However, blood group O is recessive. But from this information, you can conclude that blood group O is dominant. Why is that so?
Let's imagine that father's genotype is AA and mothers' genotype OO and cross them:
Parents: AA x OO
Offspring: AO AO AO AO
Since we have information that daughter has blood group O, we can conclude that O is dominant over A and mask it. This is not true! In this case, the daughter will have blood group A.
Mother's genotype surely is OO (because O allele is recessive, so to express a recessive trait both alleles must be recessive). But, the father cannot be AA, because it must give O allele to the daughter so she can have genotype OO and blood group O. So, the father's genotype is AO. Let's take a look at that crossing:
Parents: AO x OO
Offspring: AO AO OO OO
Thus, in this case, daughter can have genotype OO and blood group O.
