The granulosa cells and theca cells of the ovary respond to the hormones FSH and LH by growing follicles and producing hormones by acting on specific membrane receptors. Granulosa cells produce and secrete the peptide hormone inhibin, which primarily prevents the pituitary gland from producing and secreting FSH. So, the correct option is "Inhibits the secretion of FSH and produced by granulosa cells in the ovary”.
