Select the incorrect statement:

  1. FSH stimulates the sertoli cells which help in spermiogenesis.
  2. LH triggers ovulation in ovary.
  3. LH and FSH decrease gradually during the follicular phase.
  4. LH triggers secretion of androgens from the leydig cells.

Correct answer: LH and FSH decrease gradually during the follicular phase.

Solution

The incorrect statement is the one claiming LH and FSH decrease gradually during the follicular phase. In reality, FSH helps stimulate Sertoli cells for spermiogenesis, LH triggers ovulation, and LH stimulates Leydig cells to secrete androgens; the follicular phase is characterized by rising estrogen and a mid-cycle LH surge, not a gradual fall of both gonadotropins.
