Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Testosterone is produced by the interstitial cells of the testes (also known as Leydig cells) under the influence of luteinizing hormone (LH), which is produced by the anterior pituitary gland. Therefore, choice A is the correct answer. Choice B is incorrect because testosterone itself does not stimulate its own production. Choices C and D are incorrect because spermatogonia are responsible for producing sperm cells, not testosterone. FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) does stimulate spermatogenesis in the testes, but it does not directly stimulate testosterone production.
