Question

Estrogen,progesterone,and testosterone
A) are feminizing hormones.
B) induce virilization.
C) are secreted by the gonads.
D) are secreted by the adenohypophysis.

Accepted Answer

Estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone are all hormones that are secreted by the gonads. Estrogen and progesterone are primarily secreted by the ovaries in females, while testosterone is primarily secreted by the testes in males. These hormones play important roles in regulating sexual development and function, as well as other biological processes. They are not exclusively feminizing or virilizing, as their effects depend on a number of factors, including the individual's biological sex and hormone levels. They are not secreted by the adenohypophysis.
