Select the option which correctly matches the endocrine gland with its hormone and its function.

Easy

Endocrine gland -Placenta
Hormone -Estrogen
Function -Initiates secretion of the milk
B

Endocrine gland -Corpus luteum
Hormone -Estrogen
Function -Essential for maintenance of endometerium
C

Endocrine gland - Leydig's cells
Hormone -Androgen
Function -Initiates the production of sperms
D

Endocrine gland -Ovary
Hormone -FSH
Function - Stimulates follicular development and the secretion of estrogens

Solution

Leydig's cells secrete androgens which initiates the production of sperms. Estrogen does not initiate the secretion of milk. Progesterone (rather than estrogen) is essential for the maintenance of endometrium. FSH is produced by the anterior pituitary (not the ovary).
