The correct answer is: Development of corpus luteum: Secretory phase & increased secretion of progesterone
The secretory phase is also called as the luteal phase. The luteinising hormone or LH is secreted by the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland. LH causes ovulation. LH stimulates cells of ovarian follicles to develop corpus luteum. Corpus luteum secretes a large amount of progesterone.
