Vedclass · Answer

(C) The Assertion is correct because Inhibin is a peptide hormone secreted by the corpus luteum in females (and Sertoli cells in males).The Reason is partially correct in its function,but it specifically inhibits the secretion of $FSH$ from the anterior pituitary gland,not $GnRH$ directly. Since the primary action of Inhibin is the negative feedback inhibition of $FSH$ secretion,the statement provided in the Reason is considered incorrect in the context of standard biological mechanisms regarding $GnRH$ regulation. Therefore,the Assertion is correct,but the Reason is incorrect.
