b. sex hormone production in the male is rel-atively constant.
c. estrogen is not produced in the male.

ANS: B
In men, sex hormone production is relatively constant and does not occur in a cyclic pattern, as it does in women. LH has action in the male as it stimulates testosterone. Estrogen is present in the male in regard to the lack of breast development. In the male, GnRH causes the release of FSH.
