Select the incorrect statement
FSH stimulates the sertoli cells which help in spermiogenesis.
LH triggers ovulation in ovary.
LH and FSH decrease gradually during the follicular phase.
LH triggers secretion of androgens from the Leydig cells.
To solve this problem, we need to analyze each statement and determine which one is incorrect. Let's evaluate each option:Option 1: FSH stimulates the Sertoli cells which help in spermiogenesis. - Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) indeed stimulates Sertoli cells in the testes. - Sertoli cells play a crucial role in supporting and nourishing the developing sperm cells during spermiogenesis. - Therefore, this statement is correct.Option 2: LH triggers ovulation in ovary. - Luteinizing Hormone (LH) is responsible for triggering ovulation in the ovary. - It causes the mature follicle to release an egg during the menstrual cycle. - Therefore, this statement is correct.Option 3: LH and FSH decrease gradually during the follicular phase. - During the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle, FSH levels initially rise to stimulate follicle growth. - LH levels also increase towards the end of the follicular phase, leading to the LH surge that triggers ovulation. - Therefore, this statement is incorrect as both LH and FSH do not decrease gradually during the follicular phase.Option 4: LH triggers secretion of androgens from the Leydig cells. - LH stimulates the Leydig cells in the testes to produce and secrete androgens, primarily testosterone. - Therefore, this statement is correct.Based on the analysis, the incorrect statement is Option 3.
