Hormone of which its production in fowl such as chicken is triggered by increased light.
A
LH
B
estrogen
C
FSH
D
oxytocin
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Gonadotropins, for example, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH), are hormones that affect the reproductive process. In hens, optimal levels of FSH and LH can stimulate follicle growth fairly rapidly and thereby increase egg production through follicle development and increased ovulation.

Detailed explanation-2: -Light also causes the secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and LH. When these hormones reach the ovary of the chicken through the circulation, they promote the development and maturation of follicles [4].

Detailed explanation-3: -Egg-laying in chickens is regulated by a combination of environmental, endocrine and genetic factors. 2. The main endocrine factors that regulate egg-laying are gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), prolactin (PRL), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinising hormone (LH).

Detailed explanation-4: -In women, FSH helps control the menstrual cycle and the production of eggs by the ovaries. The amount of FSH varies throughout a woman’s menstrual cycle and is highest just before she releases an egg (ovulates).
