What does follicle stimulating hormone promote the development of?
primary follicle/oocyte
What is a rupture of the graafian follicle known as?
When ovulation occurs, the graafian follicle(s) rupture. The oocyte with surrounding cumulus cells (COC's) are expelled into the infundibulum and transported to the site of fertilization. Before and during the rupture of the graafian follicle, blood vessels will rupture too, which causes hemorrhaging. So the structure that is left behind after the oocyte is expelled, is called a corpus hemorrhagicum.
What surrounds a primary oocyte?
follicle cells
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 forms part of the primary follicle in the ovary?
A primary follicle consists of a primary oocyte surrounded by a single layer of enlarged cuboidal epithelium. Recall that previously, there was a primary oocyte in a primordial follicle surrounded by a thinner single layer of squamous follicular cells.
What structure in the ovary contains the developing oocyte egg?
in the Vesicular (Graafian) follicle
What consist of the follicle cells that cling to the oocyte after ovulation?
corona radiata
Once the oocyte has been release from the follicle?
it is in the first stage
The release of the oocyte from the follicle is caused by?
a surge in the level of the luteinizing (LH) hormone.
What is the difference between an oocyte and a follicle?
The egg (oocyte) develops within a follicle in the ovary. This follicle ( derived from the Latin word for nest) is a thin-walled structure containing fluid, with the egg attached to the wall. Usually, only one follicle develops per month. This follicular growth can be monitored by vaginal ultrasound scanning.
An ovarian follicle that has multiple layers of granulose cells that surround the oocyte and has fluid-filled vesicles but no antrum is called an?
secondary follicle
Is the letter for the hormone that stimulate ovulation?
LH Leutenizing hormone- it stimulates the release of the oocyte into the fallopian tube, i.e. ovulation. [Do not confuse with FSH- follicle stimulating hormone, which stimulates the growth/maturation of the follicle containing the oocyte IN the Ovary.]
