Answer 1

After ovulation, the ovary secretes both estrogen and progesterone.

Step-by-step explanation:

After ovulation, the ovary secretes both estrogen and progesterone. The growing follicle releases increasing amounts of estrogen, while the corpus luteum, formed after ovulation, releases progesterone. These hormones play important roles in regulating the menstrual cycle and preparing the uterus for implantation.
