${\huge{\huge{\underline{\underline{\mathrm{\green{AnsWer:-}}}}}}}$

Hormones which constitute the secondary sexual characters are called sex hormones. In

general, hormones work instantly when they released in blood stream. Sex hormones are

different because they start to work later on. They gradually prepare in the body for

reproduction.

The sex hormones are responsible for the fundamental change in growth & development

and stimulate the developments of secondary sexual characters. The testes and the

ovaries are the reproductive Organs and both are stimulated by the pituitary hormone

during Puberty. That's the reason these are called sex hormones.

Functions of Sex Hormones:

• In male, the testes produces the male sex hormone testosterone. This hormone

helps in the development and maintenance of the primary and secondary sexual

characters and production of sperms.

• In female, the ovaries secrete oestrogen and progesterone responsible for the

primary and secondary sexual characters

.
