Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ovulation is triggered by a surge of luteinizing hormone (LH), which is produced by the anterior pituitary gland in response to increased levels of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) from the hypothalamus. This surge in LH occurs due to positive feedback from rising estrogen levels produced by the developing ovarian follicles.
