Hormone that make uterus receptive for the implantation of zygote is:
Correct answer: C. Progesterone
- A. Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH)
- B. Estrogen
- C. Progesterone
- D. Luteinizing Hormone (LH)
Explanation
Progesterone is produced by the corpus leuteum in the ovary after ovulation. It plays a crucial role in preparing and maintaining the uterus for pregnancy. Progesterone helps to further thicken the endometrium, making it receptive to the implantation of a fertilized egg (zygote) and supports the early stages of pregnancy. Hence, option C is correct.
