polar body
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.

Primordial, secondary, tertiary, and antral are the basic steps in a developing oocyte
one cell is produced from one primary oocyte.
Any oogonia that has arrested itself in meiosis I prophase-dipotene on the onset of OMI (oocye maturation inhibition) hormone in the 3rd month of pregnancy and there after is a primary oocyte. On the urge of Leutinizing hormone which induces the pre-ovulatory phase, the primary oocyte completes meiosis I and arrests itself in meiosis II metaphase, which would only be completed if fertilization occurs, otherwise it will degenrate in 24 hours. On the completion of meiosis I, a SECONDARY oocyte and forst polar body is going to be formed.
One primary oocyte divides by meiosis and produces one polar body and one secondary oocyte. The polar body goes on to produce two more polar bodies, and the secondary oocyte divides into one polar body and one ovum. Therefore, one cell is produced from one primary oocyte.
cryptosporidium spp, has oocyte which is passed in feces.
