Matching

Match each hormone with its correct description.

Premises:

Responses:

luteinizing hormone (LH)

Secreted by the corpus luteum even after it regresses later in pregnancy; blocks uterine contractions until time of birth is near

Secreted by follicular cells; stimulates the growth of a new endometrium

Secreted by the corpus luteum and helps maintain the endometrium; secreted by Sertoli cells and inhibits FSH secretion by the anterior pituitary

stimulates growth of the uterine lining and inhibits contractions of the uterus

Secreted by Leydig cells; stimulates spermatogenesis and controls the growth and function of male reproductive structures

Secreted by the developing embryo; maintains function of the corpus luteum

Secreted by the hypothalamus; stimulates the release of FSH and LH from the anterior pituitary

Induces contraction of the uterus

stimulates oocytes in the ovaries to begin meiosis; stimulates Sertoli cells in the testes to secrete molecules needed for spermatogenesis

Triggers ovulation; stimulates Leydig cells in the testes to secrete testosterone
