Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) Decrease in estradiol

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(c) : In human females, ovulation is the release of secondary oocyte from the ovary at about \(14^{th}\) day of the menstrual cycle. Both \(LH\) and \(FSH\) attain a peak level during this period. Rapid secretion of \(LH\) induces rupturing of fully developed Graafian follicle and thereby release of ovum. \(LH\) surge is actually responsible for ovulation.
