Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

GnRH levels actually increase at puberty, triggering the release of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) from the pituitary gland. This in turn leads to an increase in sex hormone production and the onset of gametogenesis. Secondary sexual characteristics also begin to develop during puberty. Therefore, the only option that does not occur at puberty is a decline in GnRH levels.
