Granulosa cells produce estrogen with the help of the enzyme :: (A) Alkaline phosphatase, (B) Aromatase, (C) Acid phosphate, (D) Glucuronidase
Answer is B. During the follicular phase under the influence of LH, androgens are produced in the theca cells. The androgens diffuse into granulosa cells where they are aromatised to estradiol androgens-> aromatase -> estradiol and estrone, under FSH influence. Ref: D.C.
