Answer is: A. Estrogen and testosterone are created from it.

Testosterone is synthesized in several steps from cholesterol and is converted in the liver. It is the male sex hormone and an anabolic steroid.
Estrogen is synthesis in theca interna cells in the ovary, by the synthesis of androstenedione from cholesterol. It is the primary female sex hormone.
