In males, the hormone inhibin is produced by the
A)hypothalamus
B)sustentacular (Sertoli)cells
C)pituitary gland
D)interstitial cells
E)spermatogonia

Accepted Answer

In males, inhibin is produced by the Sertoli cells, which are also known as sustentacular cells. These cells are located in the seminiferous tubules of the testes and are responsible for supporting and nourishing developing sperm cells. Inhibin helps to regulate the secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) from the pituitary gland, which in turn helps to control sperm production.
