In what order does the pathway of a second Oocyte ampulla of uterine, body of uterus, fimbriae of uterine tube, fundus of uterus, infundibulum of uterine tube, isthmus of uterine tube and ovary
The background substance of the ovary is called the stroma. The name for the expulsion of the secondary oocyte from the ovary is called ovulation.
The release of the secondary oocyte from the ovary is called ovulation. This typically occurs around the middle of the menstrual cycle and is triggered by a surge in luteinizing hormone (LH).
the function of the uterus is for reproduction. when a woman becomes pregnant the uterus is where the baby grows.
The round structures in the ovary that you see under the microscope are called ovarian follicles. These follicles contain developing eggs and are the basic functional unit of the ovary. Each follicle consists of an oocyte (immature egg cell) surrounded by different layers of cells.
The small hair-like structures that catch the oocyte as it is released from the ovary are called fimbriae. These finger-like projections are located at the end of the fallopian tubes and help guide the oocyte into the tube after ovulation. The fimbriae create a sweeping motion to ensure the oocyte is captured and directed toward the site of potential fertilization.
