follicular
What is another name for an immature egg cell?
gametes, sex cells, haploid cells. the process is meiosis.
What is the function of the cilia in the lining of the fallopian tube?
Simple columnar epithelial cells, some ciliated, line the uterine tube. The epithelium secretes mucus, and the cilia beat toward the uterus. These actions help draw the secondary oocyte and expelled follicular fluid into the infundibulum following ovulation. Ciliary action and peristaltic contractions of the uterine tube's muscular layer help transport the secondary oocyte down the uterine tube. Hole's A&P page 519
What hormone stimulates the development of the egg cells and ovary?
Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH)
How many cells does a mushroom compose?

What surrounds a primary 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 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.
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?

What is the glycoprotein layer between the oocyte and the granulosa cells of an ovarian follicle called?
Zona Pellucida
What is an ovarian follicle?
the hair follicle is a skin organ that produces hair.
How are primary vesicular follicles different?
The primary follicle consists of a primary oocyte with a single layer of cuboidal/columnar follicular cells. The secondary follicle consists of several layers of cuboidal/columnar follicular cells, now collectively called the membrana granulosa which begin to secrete follicular fluid.
How are primary and vestibular follicles automatically different?
The primary follicle consists of a primary oocyte with a single layer of cuboidal/columnar follicular cells. The secondary follicle consists of several layers of cuboidal/columnar follicular cells, now collectively called the membrana granulosa which begin to secrete follicular fluid.
Why is the uterus lining not shed if a woman becomes pregnant?
i don't know. can you tell me. Actual answer> The follicle or polar cells (3 unwanted cells from miosis) detach from the ovum (egg) which is ovulation. The follicle then becomes the corpus luteum which produces the hormone progesterone, this maintains the uterus lining preventing it from being shed.
