The Leydig cells as found in the human body are the secretory source of: A Progesterone B Intestinal mucus C Glucagon D Androgens
Correct option is D) The testis is made of approximately 900 seminiferous tubules and connective tissue called the stromal or interstitial tissue made of Leydig cells (present adjacent to the seminiferous tubules). Leydig cells, also known as interstitial cells of Leydig, are found adjacent to the seminiferous tubules in the testicle. The Leydig cells secrete the androgens (male sex hormones). So, the correct answer is 'Androgens'
