Using the table of hormones and their source organs, which pair of hormones is secreted by the pituitary gland rather than by the ovary?

Answer Details

The table shows that FSH and LH are made by the pituitary gland, while oestrogen and progesterone are made by the ovary. So the pair secreted by the pituitary rather than the ovary is FSH and LH. Any pairing that includes oestrogen or progesterone is wrong, because those two come from the ovary. Keep the two pituitary hormones (FSH and LH) separate from the two ovarian hormones (oestrogen and progesterone).
