What does the hair follicle surround?
The hair follicle surrounds the root of the hair. If the follicle becomes damaged, it may not support the growth of hair, and a tiny bald spot will occur.
What changes occur in the follicle as a result of maturation?
Mr. Cahn's has a sub today
What does a ruptured follicle mean?
A ruptured follicle refers to the release of an egg from its follicle in the ovary during the ovulation phase of the menstrual cycle. This process occurs when hormonal changes trigger the follicle to break open, allowing the mature egg to exit and potentially be fertilized. The ruptured follicle then transforms into the corpus luteum, which produces hormones like progesterone to support potential pregnancy. If fertilization does not occur, the corpus luteum eventually disintegrates, leading to menstruation.
What are the stages of follicle development?
Follicle development occurs in several stages: primordial follicle, primary follicle, secondary follicle, preantral follicle, antral follicle, and mature (Graafian) follicle. Each stage involves specific changes in the follicle and oocyte as they mature towards ovulation.
When does moderate and severe inflammatory types of acne occur?
result after the plugged follicle is invaded by Propionibacterium acnes, a bacteria that normally lives on the skin. A pimple forms when the damaged follicle weakens and bursts open, releasing sebum, bacteria, and skin
What is A mature ovum in its sac sometimes called is it an oocyte or a primary follicle or a graafian follicle or an ovarian follicle?
graafian follicle
What is the fate of a mature antral follicle?
The fate of a mature antral follicle, typically in the ovulatory phase of the menstrual cycle, is to release an egg during ovulation. If fertilization occurs, the follicle transforms into the corpus luteum, which produces hormones to support early pregnancy. If fertilization does not occur, the corpus luteum degenerates, leading to a decrease in hormone levels and the eventual onset of menstruation. Thus, the fate of a mature antral follicle is closely tied to whether or not the egg is fertilized.
The sac from which hair grows?
Follicle.
What is a mature ovarian follicle?
Graafian follicle
What hormone completes follicle maturation?
The FSH hormone or follicle stimulating hormone
What consist of the follicle cells that cling to the oocyte after ovulation?
The follicle cells that remain attached to the oocyte after ovulation form the corpus luteum. These cells produce progesterone, which helps prepare the uterus for potential implantation of a fertilized egg. If fertilization does not occur, the corpus luteum degenerates.
What stimulates maturation of a primary follicle at puberty?
The increase in levels of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) that occurs at puberty stimulates the maturation of a primary follicle in the ovary. FSH acts on the granulosa cells of the primary follicle, promoting their proliferation and differentiation. This leads to the growth and development of the primary follicle into a secondary follicle.
