Question 1 of 5
What is the function of the corpus luteum in females?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The corpus luteum is formed from the ruptured follicle after ovulation. It secretes progesterone to prepare and maintain the uterine lining for potential implantation of a fertilized egg. This is crucial for a successful pregnancy. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because the corpus luteum's main function is to secrete progesterone, not to stimulate ovulation, produce estrogen, or mature eggs.
