Correct answer

B. Secondary follicle

Step-by-step solution

Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) stimulates the growth and development of ovarian follicles. As the primary follicle develops into a secondary follicle, it acquires multiple layers of granulosa cells and a new theca layer. The theca interna cells, along with the granulosa cells of the growing secondary follicle, are primarily responsible for the secretion of estrogen under the influence of FSH.
