Name the three major interacting hormonal events associated with the onset of puberty.
A)Increased GnRH production,increased LH and decreased FSH production,activation of ovaries and testes by LH.
B)Decreased GnRH production due to estrogen and testosterone negative feedback,decrease in LH and FSH release by the anterior pituitary gland,and decreased LH and FSH sensitivity by the ovaries and testes.
C)Increased GnRH production,increased sensitivity of the anterior pituitary to GnRH and the subsequent release of LH and FSH,and increased sensitivity of ovaries and testes to LH and FSH.
D)Increased hypothalamic LH production,anterior pituitary release of estrogen and testosterone,estrogen activation of ovaries and testosterone activation of testes.
E)Increased hypothalamic estrogen and testosterone production,estrogen activation of ovaries and testosterone activation of testes.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The three major interacting hormonal events associated with the onset of puberty are increased production of GnRH, increased sensitivity of the anterior pituitary to GnRH resulting in the subsequent release of LH and FSH, and increased sensitivity of the ovaries and testes to LH and FSH. Option A is incorrect as it does not mention the increased sensitivity of the ovaries and testes to LH and FSH. Option B is incorrect as it states decreased GnRH production, which is not true. Option D is incorrect as it mentions the anterior pituitary release of estrogen and testosterone, which is not correct. Option E is incorrect as it mentions hypothalamic estrogen and testosterone production, which is not accurate.
