Answer:
C
Solution:
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a hormone produced primarily by syncytiotrophoblastic cells of the placenta during pregnancy. The hormone stimulates the corpus luteum to produce progesterone to maintain the pregnancy. It maintains the corpus luteum and thereby stimulates the synthesis of estrogen and progesterone.
