Question

which gland stimulates the testes and ovaries to produce sex hormones?
a) hypothalamus
b) thyroid gland
c) pituitary gland
d) adrenal gland

Explanation:

The pituitary gland secretes luteinizing hormone (LH). In males, LH stimulates the testes to produce testosterone. In females, LH stimulates the ovaries to produce estrogen and progesterone. The hypothalamus mainly regulates the pituitary gland's activity rather than directly stimulating the testes and ovaries. The thyroid gland is involved in metabolism regulation. The adrenal gland is related to stress - response hormones and some sex - like hormones (but not the main stimulator of testes and ovaries for primary sex hormones).

Answer:

C. pituitary gland
