Welcome to the NCERT Solutions for Class 12th Biology - Chapter Human Reproduction. This page offers a step-by-step solution to the specific question from Exercise 1, Question 7: name the hormones involved in regulation of sperma....
Question 7
Name the hormones involved in regulation of spermatogenesis.
Answer
Follicle-stimulating hormones (FSH) and luteinizing hormones (LH) are secreted by gonadotropin releasing hormones from the hypothalamus .These hormones are involved in the regulation of the process of spermatogenesis. FSH acts on sertoli cells, whereas LH acts on leydig cells of the testis and stimulates the process of spermatogenesis.
