Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is c. 3rd and 4th are not the functions of testes at puberty.

Explanation:

The testes are accountable for producing sperm and are also involved in forming a hormone called testosterone. Testosterone is a vital hormone during male growth and maturation for growing muscles, deepening the voice, developing body hair, etc. Therefore formation of germ cells and secretion of testosterone are functions of testes. While the placenta is the nourishing organ that forms in the female body during pregnancy. Estrogen is secreted in girls during puberty.
