Explain the regulation of testosterone secretion
Asma V.
GNRH (gonadotropin-releasing hormone) stimulates the anterior pituitary gland to release luteinizing hormone (LH). LH stimulates interstitial cells to produce testosterone. Inhibin inhibits FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) secretion, which causes a decrease in sperm production and testosterone production. In females, LH release is regulated by progesterone. Estrogen causes the maturation of the egg and the development and maintenance of the female reproductive structures.

41) Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone do all of the following EXCEPT: bring about the development of masculine secondary sexual characteristics. Suppress protein synthesis until the onset of puberty. Stimulate the development of male reproductive structures in an embryo. Bring about the development and enlargement of the male sex organs. 44) All of the following statements about the reproductive system are correct except? Gonads produce gametes and secrete sex hormones. Urology is the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the female reproductive system. Reproductive organs produce, nourish, and transport gametes. Sexual reproduction is the process by which organisms produce offspring.
