fertilized egg
There is a good chance.
Oviduct
Ovulation is the process where an ovum (or egg) ruptures from a mature follicle. During the heat cycle, the follicle matures and the side opposite of the egg bulges and becomes thin. This thin tissue ruptures, releasing the egg from the ovaries and moves it into the oviduct. Ovulation occurs ~12 hours after standing heat in the cow.
Under influence of follicle stimulating hormone from anterior pituitary, You have few egg cells and follicles getting to maturity and enlargement respectively. Egg cells mature by meiotic cell division. Also you have few follicles enlarged. The bigger follicle ruptures. Giving you mature ovum released in peritoneal cavity.
graafian follicle
Graafian follicle
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.
graafian follicle
no.. The normal function of the ovaries is to produce an egg each month. During the process of ovulation, a cyst-like structure called a follicle is formed inside the ovary. The mature follicle ruptures when an egg is released during ovulation. A corpus luteum forms from the empty follicle, and if pregnancy does not occur, the corpus luteum dissolves. Sometimes, however, this process does not conclude appropriately, causing the most common type of ovarian cyst -- functional ovarian cysts.
A mature follicle will be released during ovulation and travel to the uterus. If is it fertilized, then it will implant in the uterine wall. If it does not then it will be passed out of the body during the menstrual cycle.
Ovulation, that is a process by which a mature ovarian follicle releases an ovum, is triggered by the spike in the amount of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) released from the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland.
FSH (follicle stimulating hormone) allows an egg to grow and mature so that it can be released.
