| In females, progesterone and estrogen are secreted by the ______ in response to stimulation by FSH and LH secreted by the ______. | ovaries; anterior pituitary |
| How do birth control pills and injections act to prevent contraception? | prevent ovulation |
| After ovulation in animals, the ruptured follicle differentiates into a gland called the | corpus luteum. |
