The function that is not influenced by estrogen is
ARelease of eggs from the ovaries
BFormation of sperms
CDevelopment of the breasts
DMenstrual cycle

Correct answer is: option b (Formation of sperms)
Explanation: Estrogen is a primary female sex hormone. Its effects primarily target female reproductive tissues and secondary sexual characteristics. Sperm formation (spermatogenesis) is a process controlled by hormones like testosterone and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in males, making it independent of estrogen's direct influence.

  • Option a: Release of eggs from the ovaries is called ovulation, which is heavily regulated by hormonal fluctuations, including a surge in estrogen levels.
  • Option b: Sperm formation is a process controlled by hormones such as testosterone.
  • Option c: Breast development during puberty and throughout a woman's life is significantly influenced by estrogen.
  • Option d: The menstrual cycle is a recurring cycle of physiological changes in the female reproductive system driven by the interplay of hormones like estrogen and progesterone.
