The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks for the name of the process by which milk is secreted from the mammary glands in human females. 2. **Identifying the Process**: The correct term for the secretion of milk from the mammary glands is "lactation." This process typically occurs after childbirth (parturition). 3. **Eliminating Incorrect Options**: - **Grastulation**: This term refers to the formation of a blastula from a gastrula during embryonic development, which is unrelated to milk secretion. - **Blastulation**: Similar to grastulation, this term also pertains to the early stages of embryonic development and does not relate to lactation. - **Modulation**: This term is not associated with the secretion of milk and is therefore incorrect. 4. **Conclusion**: The correct answer to the question is "Lactation," as it specifically refers to the process of milk secretion in human females after childbirth. **Final Answer**: The process of secretion of milk from the mammary glands of human females is called **Lactation**. ---
